Name: Cakile edentula ssp. harperi Sparse Vegetation Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: This association is a southern Atlantic Coast upper ocean beach community. It occupies the upper portion of ocean beaches in the southern part (Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, to Cumberland Island, Georgia) of the microtidal region (barrier islands with coastal geomorphology dominated by hurricane overwash rather than tidal energy), as well as vegetation further south to Volusia County, Florida. Characteristic species include mostly annual herbs, such as <i>Cakile edentula ssp. harperi, Chamaesyce polygonifolia, Chamaesyce bombensis, Sesuvium portulacastrum, Salsola kali ssp. kali (= Salsola caroliniana)</i>, and <i>Amaranthus pumilus</i>. On Cumberland Island National Seashore in southeastern Georgia, perennials such as <i>Croton punctatus</i> and <i>Uniola paniculata</i> also can be important.  Accession Code: VB.CC.36394.CEGL004401 Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
