Name: A.1821
Reference: EcoArt 2002
Description: This alliance includes depressions in Coastal Plain sands dominated by aquatic mats of ~Sphagnum cuspidatum$, usually with little or no vascular vegetation, except sometimes ~Utricularia$ spp. These communities are seasonally flooded 15-100 cm deep, generally ponded during the winter months into the spring, but drying down by late summer in most years. The ~Sphagnum$ is usually stranded as bleached remnants by early autumn.
