Name: Cladium mariscus - Woodwardia virginica Marsh
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This fresh marsh association dominated by <i>Cladium mariscus ssp. jamaicense</i> occurs in interdune depressions of the Alabama Gulf Coast and related areas of the Georgia Atlantic Coast, as well as open streamhead and flatwoods environments in northern Florida. Other typical species include <i>Woodwardia virginica, Morella cerifera, Toxicodendron radicans, Osmunda regalis var. spectabilis, Sagittaria lancifolia, Centella erecta</i>, and <i>Persea palustris</i>. Although this is essentially an herbaceous type, shrubs (especially <i>Morella cerifera</i> and <i>Cephalanthus occidentalis</i>) may sometimes have substantial cover. All of these are treated here, even examples with scattered to open shrub cover.
