Name: Eragrostis hypnoides - Lipocarpha micrantha - Micranthemum umbrosum Seasonally Flooded Herbaceous Alliance
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: Seasonally flooded riverbanks, depressional wetlands, and other sandy shores, with a seasonal drawdown zone dominated by annuals, many of them diminutive. Includes annual-dominated drawdown banks of blackwater rivers and other seasonally flooded muddy to silty banks. Annuals dominate this community and can include Eragrostis hypnoides, Lipocarpha micrantha, Lindernia dubia var. dubia, Lindernia dubia var. anagallidea, Micranthemum umbrosum, Oldenlandia uniflora, Cyperus strigosus, Bidens discoidea, Bidens frondosa, Fimbristylis perpusilla, Fimbristylis autumnalis, and Juncus pelocarpus. Perennials are also present, including Juncus repens, Cyperus strigosus, Helenium flexuosum, Gratiola aurea, Ludwigia sphaerocarpa, Polygonum hydropiperoides, Polygonum amphibium, and Sabatia kennedyana, but the community is generally dominated by a sparse to dense turf of annuals, most of the cover from 2-10 cm tall.
