Name: A.1929
Reference: EcoArt 2002
Description: This alliance consists of large wind-tidal flats (often exceeding a thousand acres in size) dominated by the cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) ~Lyngbea$ spp. These communities occur in subtropical southern Texas (at least as far north as Corpus Christi and likely a bit farther north) and adjacent Tamaulipas, Mexico. These areas are usually exposed but are inundated by extreme high tides and wind tides.
