Name: Schoenoplectus pungens - Fimbristylis (castanea, caroliniana) Marsh Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This interdunal swale community of the Eastern Shore of Virginia and Maryland is characterized by dense cover of <i>Schoenoplectus pungens</i> and/or <i>Spartina patens</i>, with <i>Fimbristylis castanea</i> or <i>Fimbristylis caroliniana</i>. There is usually shallow standing water present in these swales in the spring, when <i>Schoenoplectus pungens</i> or <i>Spartina patens</i> is generally dominant with few other associates except species of <i>Eleocharis</i>. By late summer a number of other species such as <i>Fimbristylis castanea</i> and <i>Sabatia stellaris</i> contribute more substantial cover. Other herbs contribute very little to the overall vegetative cover. These associated species include <i>Andropogon virginicus, Andropogon glomeratus, Eleocharis rostellata, Phragmites australis, Pluchea foetida, Pluchea odorata, Cyperus filicinus, Juncus scirpoides, Hydrocotyle umbellata, Eleocharis parvula, Panicum amarum, Fimbristylis autumnalis, Sabatia stellaris, Ptilimnium capillaceum, Fuirena pumila</i>, and <i>Juncus canadensis</i>. Diagnostic species are <i>Schoenoplectus pungens</i> and <i>Fimbristylis castanea</i>. Related vegetation of the Atlantic Coast from North Carolina southward is accommodated under ~<i>Fimbristylis castanea - Schoenoplectus pungens</i> Marsh (CEGL003790)$$.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:32962-{EE1FF94C-4933-4A48-A6B4-08D9AF939BE8} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 21
