Name: Rhizophora mangle Semipermanently Flooded Shrubland Alliance Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: This alliance consists of non-tidal shrublands dominated by Rhizophora mangle. Rhizophora mangle is generally the monodominant shrub, and characteristically forms an open to even scattered shrub stratum, in contrast to most tidal Rhizophora mangle communities. Various herbs, such as Eleocharis cellulosa, with Utricularia purpurea, Utricularia spp., Rhynchospora tracyi, Crinum americanum, and the macro-alga Chara sp., may be common. This alliance occupies more highly stressed sites than the I.A.5.N.f Rhizophora mangle Tidal Forest Alliance (A.83) and has shorter individual trees (less than 5 m and usually only 0.5-2 m tall).  Accession Code: VB.CC.26089.RHIZOPHORAMANGL Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
