Name: Scirpus microcarpus Marsh
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: Habitat is marshes, fens, or springs. Data from these plots is highly variable, and a number of different phases could be segregated with further study. Stands are usually monotypic and may reach heights of 1 m (3 feet). Trees are peripheral to the wetlands and can be both deciduous or coniferous. Eight shrubs are reported from these stands, but all have negligible constancy and cover. Almost 80 species are reported from the herb layer, presumably because of the great variety of habitats and elevations in which the association occurs. <i>Scirpus microcarpus</i> is the primary species, with average cover of 75% and ranging from 15-98%. Most other species have much lower constancy and cover. Associated species with significant patches include <i>Lysichiton americanus, Athyrium filix-femina, Oenanthe sarmentosa, Stachys rigida var. rigida, Carex aquatilis var. dives</i>, and <i>Senecio triangularis</i>.
