Name: A.1394
Reference: EcoArt 2002
Description: This alliance, found in the midwestern United States and the central provinces of Canada, is characterized by emergent graminoids and forbs in shallow marshes. Shallow aquatics like ~Sparganium eurycarpum$ or ~Sagittaria latifolia$ may be more diagnostic than ~Typha$ spp. or ~Schoenoplectus$ spp. (= ~Scirpus$ spp.). Other species present include ~Carex comosa, Lemna minor$, and ~Rumex orbiculatus$. Further work is needed to characterize this alliance. ^Shallow marshes have soils that are saturated to inundated by standing water up to 15 cm in depth throughout much of the growing season.
