Name: Hydrocotyle ranunculoides - (Sacciolepis striata) Floating Aquatic Vegetation
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This community occurs on the quiet edges and backwaters of blackwater and possibly brownwater Coastal Plain rivers, where it forms floating mats over shallow to deep water. Vegetation is dominated by <i>Hydrocotyle ranunculoides</i>. <i>Sacciolepis striata</i> sometimes dominates later in the growing season. <i>Alternanthera philoxeroides</i> often invades this community. When this occurs, <i>Hydrocotyle</i> tends to dominate in the early spring and <i>Alternanthera</i> in the later spring and summer.
