Name: Justicia americana Temporarily Flooded Herbaceous Alliance Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: This alliance covers rocky river shoals dominated by Justicia americana with Orontium aquaticum, Podostemum ceratophyllum, Leersia spp., Lemna minor, Saururus cernuus, and others. A sparse canopy may be present, and species may include Carpinus caroliniana ssp. caroliniana, Fagus grandifolia, and Fraxinus pennsylvanica. There is some apparent regional variation in the associated species. More Appalachian examples may contain Orontium aquaticum as a codominant. In parts of the Ridge and Valley and Piedmont, Hymenocallis caroliniana (= Hymenocallis coronaria) is codominant. In the Edwards Plateau of central Texas, associated with Justicia americana are Bacopa monnieri, Fuirena simplex, Eleocharis geniculata (= Eleocharis caribaea), Eleocharis montevidensis, and Cyperus spp.  Accession Code: VB.CC.18981.JUSTICIAAMERICA Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
