Reference: Eastern Ecology Working Group of...
Description: This backdune grassland of large northeastern dune systems occurs on eolian sand of interdunes that is sheltered from the direct impacts of overwash and wind. The substrate becomes stabilized over time as grasses and lichens become established. The vegetation is strongly dominated by <i>Deschampsia flexuosa</i>. Other associates may include <i>Ammophila breviligulata, Schizachyrium scoparium, Lechea maritima</i>, and <i>Solidago sempervirens</i> at low cover.
