Observation Narrative	Vegetation is similar to that sampled farther upstream along Chotank Creek. Patches of open water are more abundant here and are sparsely vegetated with low-statured species, such as Lilaeopsis chinensis and Ludwigia palustris. Schoenoplectus americanus is the leading dominant, although Kosteletzkya virginica is more abundant than in other portions of this marsh.
