Name: A.1345
Reference: EcoArt 2002
Description: This alliance includes temporarily flooded riverbanks dominated by ~Phragmites australis$. This alliance occurs along the Rio Grande in Texas and adjacent Mexico, where it occupies sandy levees and banks. In contrast to most ~Phragmites$ communities in the southeastern United States, this is apparently a natural community. Similar giant grass communities dominated by ~Arundo donax$ often occur in close proximity.
