Name: Polygonum amphibium Permanently Flooded Herbaceous Vegetation [Placeholder]
Reference: Western Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This community is found primarily in the western United States and one province in Canada. It occurs over a wide elevational range from near sea level to over 2700 m. Stands are found in permanently flooded depressions, such as margins of lake shores and oxbow lakes in river floodplains. The vegetation is characterized by the dominance or codominance of Polygonum amphibium, a hydromorphically rooted emergent forb. Associates may include species of Potamogeton and other aquatic plants.
