Name: Schoenoplectus spp. - Poa palustris - Mixed Herbaceous Great Plains Streamside Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Midwestern Ecology Working Group...
Description: Western Great Plains Streamside Vegetation lines perennial streams at lower to mid elevations in the Black Hills of the United States, and perhaps more widely in the northern Great Plains. Species composition is variable, and dominance is patchy within stands. Local dominants include <i>Agrostis stolonifera, Glyceria grandis, Poa palustris, Scirpus pallidus, Eleocharis palustris, Leersia oryzoides, Lycopus asper, Cicuta douglasii</i>, and <i>Rorippa nasturtium-aquaticum</i>. <i>Ranunculus longirostris (= Ranunculus circinatus)</i> can be abundant in adjacent shallow water. <i>Catabrosa aquatica, Mimulus guttatus</i>, and several species of <i>Veronica</i> and <i>Epilobium</i> commonly grow in adjacent shallow water. This type is undersurveyed and not well-characterized. It typically forms a narrow border, perhaps only a few m wide, along streams, and this scale may be too fine for recognition as an association.
