Name: Cakile constricta Sparsely Vegetated Alliance
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: Annual-dominated sand flats on island end flats and upper ocean beaches, within the reach of storm tides and extreme lunar tides. This alliance has more perennial species than the related Cakile edentula Sparsely Vegetated Alliance (A.1861), since the Gulf Coast shoreline is a lower-energy system, and the alliance is less dynamic and less frequently disturbed. Other characteristic species include Iva imbricata, Ipomoea pes-caprae, and Ipomoea imperati.
