Name: Leersia oryzoides - Glyceria striata - (Schoenoplectus spp., Impatiens capensis) Herbaceous Vegetation
Reference: Midwestern Ecology Working Group...
Description: This herbaceous association is found in New York, Delaware, Ontario and Quebec. It is currently only described from Saratoga National Historical Park in New York, and the following description is based on occurrences there. It is also reported from Delaware, Ontario and Quebec. Additional information will be added as it becomes available. This permanently inundated community occurs on floodplains with soils that are moderately well-drained to very poorly drained silt loam. Underlying bedrock is shale, siltstone, and sandstone in the Austin Glen, Mt. Merino, and Canajoharie formations. The vegetation of this herbaceous association is dominated by <i>Leersia oryzoides</i> with <i>Scirpus atrovirens</i> and <i>Impatiens capensis</i> occurring as fairly consistent associates. Additional associated species are <i>Typha latifolia, Onoclea sensibilis, Verbena hastata, Mimulus ringens, Eupatorium maculatum (= Eutrochium maculatum), Thelypteris palustris, Polygonum sagittatum (= Persicaria sagittata), Bidens connata, Eupatorium perfoliatum, Polygonum hydropiperoides (= Persicaria hydropiperoides)</i>, and <i>Juncus effusus</i>. Scattered tall shrubs (just over 2 m tall) can also be present; <i>Rhamnus cathartica</i> is the most abundant species.
