Name: Scirpus cyperinus - Dulichium arundinaceum / Sphagnum spp. Marsh Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This community includes emergent zones in upland depression ponds of the mountains of North Carolina and adjacent states, where water is ponded by an impermeable substrate. It has a pronounced seasonal fluctuation in water level, filling in the winter and often drying completely in the summer. It is extremely rare, known only from very few scattered sites in Burke and Buncombe counties, North Carolina. This community includes a variety of shrub- and herb-dominated upland wetlands with very different substrates. Herbaceous vegetation occurs in monospecific clumps, with <i>Sphagnum</i> mats, and scattered shrubs and trees around the margins. Typical dominants are <i>Scirpus cyperinus, Dulichium arundinaceum, Juncus effusus var. solutus</i>, and <i>Juncus canadensis</i>. Other species include <i>Bartonia virginica, Osmunda regalis var. spectabilis, Sphagnum lescurii, Sphagnum pylaesii, Sphagnum cuspidatum, Sphagnum palustre</i>, and <i>Sphagnum recurvum</i>. Sparsely distributed trees may include <i>Nyssa sylvatica, Quercus phellos, Acer rubrum</i>, and <i>Liquidambar styraciflua</i>. Shrubs include <i>Cephalanthus occidentalis, Vaccinium</i> spp., and <i>Eubotrys racemosa</i>.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:32978-{94605569-0B2A-4D1F-B8E8-B16DC4949B52} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 1
