Name: Bacopa monnieri - Eleocharis albida Herbaceous Vegetation Reference: Eastern Ecology Working Group of... Description: This association comprises vegetation in broad, flat, seasonally flooded ponds within maritime dunes, and is known only from Virginia. It occurs in natural settings at Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge, but has also been observed at impoundments of Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge. Vegetation is often dominated by floating aquatic species, especially <i>Bacopa monnieri</i>. Common associates include <i>Eleocharis albida, Stuckenia pectinata (= Potamogeton pectinatus), Pluchea odorata, Schoenoplectus pungens (= Scirpus pungens), Hydrocotyle umbellata, Hydrocotyle verticillata, Phyla lanceolata</i>, and <i>Cyperus odoratus</i>. Algae may occur in abundance. Species diversity is low. Standing water may be present during much of the year. Soils are generally a shallow organic layer over wet sand. These interdunal ponds generally occur only in large dune systems.  Accession Code: VB.CC.31071.CEGL006350 Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
