Observation Narrative	The habitat is one of many relatively dry interdune swales occurring among sparse shrublands in the northern portion of Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge. Schoenoplectus pungens, common in wetter interdune swales of the refuge, is absent here, replaced by Schizachyrium littorale and Festuca rubra. Plot located in shallow swale in back dunes, ca. 0.6 mi ESE of the Will Hole.
