Name: Typha spp. - Carex spp. Acid Seep Herbaceous Vegetation Reference: Midwestern Ecology Working Group... Description: This type is currently reported from the western tallgrass prairie region in southeastern Kansas. Stands occur at the bases of gently to moderately steep slopes in river valleys and canyons. Soils are shallow to deep with deposits of peat or muck, formed in sandstone or alluvium. Soils are constantly saturated by acidic groundwater that flows from gravelly or sandy substrates. The vegetation is dominated by herbaceous species, with scattered shrubs. Prominent herbs include Typha latifolia or Typha angustifolia and a variety of Carices. There may be Sphagnum spp. present in some stands. Shrubs include Lindera benzoin, Sassafras albidum, and Vaccinium arboreum.  Accession Code: VB.CC.20088.TYPHASPPCAREXSP Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
