Name: Spartina foliosa Salt Marsh Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This association is known from the Point Reyes National Seashore and from Suisun Marsh in California. Information about its global characteristics is not available without additional inventory. Other anecdotal observations in San Pablo Bay and San Francisco Bay suggest that it regularly occupies the outer edges of tidal mudflats in the areas with deepest tidal water. <i>Salicornia depressa</i> typically occupies the landward edges of the stands. This association is found on flat, linear/even basins/wetlands with no slope. It occurs on medium silt soil textures and silty alluvium parent material. Typically stands are monotypes with <i>Spartina foliosa</i> comprising most or all of the vegetative cover, occasionally with some minor cover of <i>Salicornia depressa</i> and algae.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:32353-{C5F50273-B05E-4F3B-A25C-596B8D4993F1} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 1
