Name: Fimbristylis castanea - Schoenoplectus pungens Seasonally Flooded Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This interdunal pond or wet swale community represents vegetation dominated by Fimbristylis castanea and Schoenoplectus pungens although relative dominance varies seasonally complicating characterization of this type. Characteristic species include Schoenoplectus pungens (= Scirpus pungens) in association with Spartina patens and Fimbristylis castanea. There is usually standing water present in these swales in the spring, when Schoenoplectus pungens is generally dominant with few other associates except species of Eleocharis. By late summer other species such as Fimbristylis castanea contribute more substantial cover. Diagnostic species are Schoenoplectus pungens, Fimbristylis castanea, and Spartina patens.
