Name: Cephalanthus occidentalis / Limnobium spongia - Salvinia minima Shrubland
Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...
Description: This community occurs in isolated wetland basins in central Florida surrounded by uplands. <i>Cephalanthus occidentalis</i> dominates (often monospecifically). Few or no rooted herbs are present. Floating aquatics include <i>Salvinia minima, Limnobium spongia</i>, and <i>Lemna</i> spp. Although the floristic differences between this community and river floodplain buttonbush swamps are slight, this community is recognized because of its very different topographic setting, dynamics, and fauna.
