Description: These are seasonally flooded upland depressions dominated by ~Rhynchospora inundata$ and/or ~Rhynchospora careyana$ (the two species currently taxonomically muddled). Some additional species that may be present in stands of this type include ~Panicum hemitomon, Panicum verrucosum, Rhynchospora cephalantha, Rhynchospora filifolia, Andropogon capillipes, Xyris fimbriata, Xyris$ sp., ~Lachnanthes caroliana, Fuirena$ sp., ~Lycopodiella appressa, Eupatorium leptophyllum, Pontederia cordata, Solidago latissimifolia$, and ~Triadenum virginicum$. One very rare association that occurs in South Carolina also contains ~Eriocaulon decangulare var. decangulare, Panicum virgatum var. virgatum (= Panicum virgatum var. cubense)$, and ~Muhlenbergia expansa$ in addition to the nominal species. Floating aquatic plants such as ~Nymphaea odorata$ and ~Nymphoides aquatica$ may be present. Woody plants, present at low cover, may include ~Hypericum brachyphyllum$ and seedlings of ~Pinus elliottii$.
