Name: Scirpus cyperinus Southern Ruderal Marsh
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This association is a ruderal type, consisting of <i>Scirpus cyperinus</i> as an essentially monospecific stand, especially in artificial wetlands, such as borrow pits or ponds. The water table is at or above the soil surface for at least part of the growing season. The dominant species, <i>Scirpus cyperinus</i>, often forms dense, almost monotypic stands. <i>Carex</i> spp. and <i>Schoenoplectus</i> spp. are often found in this community. Other co-occurring species of this association are not fully known. It is a widespread type. At Fort Benning, Georgia, <i>Scirpus cyperinus</i> occurs with <i>Saccharum giganteum, Juncus</i> sp., and occasional <i>Alnus serrulata</i> and <i>Nyssa biflora</i> in beaver ponds and other hydrologically enhanced areas. In the Interior Low Plateau of Tennessee, <i>Scirpus cyperinus</i> is commonly found with <i>Typha latifolia</i> in roadside ditches and on the margins of ponds and reservoirs.
