Name: Zizania texana - Potamogeton illinoensis Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This narrowly endemic community occurs in a several-kilometer stretch of the spring-fed, calcareous waters of the San Marcos River, Texas. Zizania texana is dominant, but beds of various emergent, floating, and submersed aquatics are intermixed, including Potamogeton illinoensis, Ludwigia palustris, Sparganium americanum, Hydrilla verticillata (exotic), Egeria densa (exotic), Sagittaria sp., and filamentous green algae. This community is threatened by exotic species, changes in hydrology (related to groundwater pumping), sedimentation, and recreation.
