Name: Sesuvium portulacastrum - Atriplex spp. - Suaeda spp. Sparse Beach Vegetation Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This association represents irregularly flooded beach vegetation along the Atlantic and northern Gulf of Mexico coasts. Examples tend to occur on the backside of the ends of barrier islands where they are only irregularly flooded. In contrast to <i>Salicornia</i>- or <i>Distichlis</i>-dominated areas, they apparently accumulate less salt. Its physiognomy tends to be of scattered mound-like clumps of vegetation (mostly <i>Sesuvium portulacastrum</i>) in a wet sand flat.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:33196-{7EA9C21F-C279-4321-A9CE-B39129122FEC} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 7
