Name: Schizachyrium rhizomatum - Aristida purpurascens var. tenuispica - Eragrostis spectabilis Herbaceous Vegetation Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: This community represents marl prairies of the south Florida Everglades region. It occurs on "table-rock" formations which are surfaces of oolite elevated above wet prairies [see Muhlenbergia filipes - Rhynchospora microcarpa - Centella erecta Herbaceous Vegetation (CEGL003978)]. Apparently as a consequence of this higher topographic position, this type is rarely flooded. It occurs in small, widely scattered areas in a matrix dominated by pyrogenic wet prairie vegetation. Schizachyrium rhizomatum, Aristida purpurascens var. tenuispica, Eragrostis spectabilis, Andropogon gyrans, Andropogon glomeratus var. pumilus, Panicum tenerum, and Paspalum setaceum are the principal graminoids present, and are indicative of this community in combination. Woody species present include Baccharis halimifolia, Chamaecrista deeringiana, Chiococca parvifolia, Senna ligustrina, and Vitis rotundifolia var. munsoniana. Other herbaceous species present include Anemia wrightii, Buchnera longifolia, Eupatorium leptophyllum, Funastrum clausum (= Sarcostemma clausum), Hyptis alata, Linum carteri, Polygala grandiflora, Solidago stricta, and Odontosoria clavata (= Sphenomeris clavata).  Accession Code: VB.CC.19126.SCHIZACHYRIUMRH Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
