Name: A.1381
Reference: EcoArt 2002
Description: This alliance is found throughout the northeastern United States, but its distribution as a natural type is complicated elsewhere. Stands are dominated by ~Phalaris arundinacea$, which tends to occur in monocultures or associated with ~Calamagrostis canadensis$. Other associates in the Northeast include ~Viburnum nudum, Alnus incana$ or ~Alnus serrulata, Viburnum dentatum$, and ~Agrostis gigantea$. Further work is required to resolve the natural versus introduced nature of this type in North American before a complete alliance description can be completed. Stands are typically minerotrophic wetlands rather than river shores.
