Observation Narrative	Plot describes seasonally flooded marsh dominated by Phalaris arundinacea. This vegetation covers most of the wetland here. Vascular plant species here are few, perhaps due to the overwhelming dominance of Phalaris. The lowest, muck bottomed depressions in this general area support such species as Nuphar advena, Ludwigia palustris and Eragrostis hypnoides.
