Name: Brasenia schreberi Eastern Aquatic Vegetation Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This community is found throughout the southeastern United States, from Georgia to Texas and in the interior to Kentucky, Oklahoma, and Arkansas. This vegetation occurs in a range of natural ponds and impoundments, including ponds, beaver ponds, and lake margins. <i>Brasenia schreberi</i> is the dominant plant species; other species may include <i>Leersia oryzoides, Lemna valdiviana, Juncus effusus, Stuckenia pectinata, Nymphaea odorata</i>, and <i>Spirodela polyrrhiza</i>. An occurrence along the Texas coast at McFaddin National Wildlife Refuge occupies the "open water" areas interspersed with emergent vegetation and "flotant" marsh dominated by <i>Panicum hemitomon</i> (~<i>Panicum hemitomon</i> Marsh (CEGL004665)$$). Other floating aquatics present include <i>Nelumbo lutea, Nymphaea odorata, Nymphaea mexicana</i>, and <i>Utricularia</i> spp., along with submersed aquatics such as <i>Cabomba caroliniana</i> and <i>Ceratophyllum demersum</i> and rooted aquatics such as <i>Pontederia cordata</i> and <i>Zizaniopsis miliacea</i>. Additional information is needed on the full range and variability of expression of this vegetation.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:33313-{72AFF9E0-2E24-4000-B0C1-339264AAC8D4} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 1
