Name: Rhizophora mangle - (Avicennia germinans, Laguncularia racemosa) Riverine Forest Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: Rhizophora mangle predominates in stands of this type, but is sometimes mixed with Avicennia germinans and Laguncularia racemosa. These are mangrove forests on organic soils in intertidal situations along island peripheries, usually with little or no understory, in the Florida Keys and southern peninsular Florida. Tidal flushing is daily. This association has the highest productivity, highest complexity, and highest floristic diversity of mangrove communities in southern Florida and the West Indies. The canopy is also the tallest, with the closed mangrove canopy usually 7-15 (or up to 20) m high.  Accession Code: VB.CC.21080.RHIZOPHORAMANGL Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
