Name: Ruppia maritima - Schoenoplectus maritimus Herbaceous Vegetation Reference: Eastern Ecology Working Group of... Description: These are permanently or semipermanently flooded salt pools or pannes of New England characterized by Ruppia maritima. These deepwater pannes, pools, and ditches occur within high salt marsh and are influenced by impeded drainage. As a result, they are often hypersaline. Associated species can include Stuckenia pectinata (= Potamogeton pectinatus), Zannichellia palustris, and purple-sulfur bacteria. Schoenoplectus maritimus (= Scirpus maritimus) borders the standing water in the northern portion of the range. This is the habitat for "marsh minnows," Pungitius pungitius, Gasterosteus aculeatus, and Apeltes quadracus and mummichog, Fundulus heteroclitus.  Accession Code: VB.CC.25354.RUPPIAMARITIMAS Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
