Name: Decodon verticillatus / Triadenum virginicum Shrubland
Reference:
Description: This wetland vegetation of mucky substrates occurs in southern New England. It often completely covers small seasonally flooded basins, or occurs in a patchy zone on the periphery of larger permanent water bodies. The vegetation is dominated by <i>Decodon verticillatus</i>. Although the flooding regime is typified by a longer hydroperiod than many other Coastal Plain pondshore vegetation types as evidenced by moderately deep to deep muck, water levels in dry years drop below the surface, exposing substrate supporting Coastal Plain species such as <i>Drosera intermedia, Hypericum mutilum</i>, and <i>Viola lanceolata</i>. Typical associates include <i>Triadenum virginicum, Leersia oryzoides, Lycopus uniflorus, Lycopus virginicus, Bidens connata, Lysimachia terrestris, Juncus canadensis, Galium palustre</i>, and <i>Woodwardia virginica</i>.
