Name: Sphagnum cuspidatum Peat Marsh
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This vegetation occurs in depressions with coarse, acidic, Atlantic Coastal Plain sands and is dominated by aquatic mats of <i>Sphagnum cuspidatum</i>. Vascular plants are typically absent, or represented by very limited occurrence of <i>Utricularia</i> spp. These communities generally have surface water for most or all of the winter, and then dry down variably during the growing season. <i>Sphagnum cuspidatum</i> is usually stranded as bleached remnants by early autumn.
