Location Narrative ? This is a long, linear stand of herbaceous vegetation along a small, seasonal creek. There are a few over-hanging upland trees and Salix within the stand. This stand is dominated by Holozonia filipes with patches of Eleocharis and other riparian species. There is very high species diversity in the herbaceous layer. Patches of this type of vegetation occur along this entire section of creek.
