Name: Schoenoplectus pungens - Distichlis spicata Marsh
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This association is found in the Canadian River and Pecos basins in eastern New Mexico. Preliminary data suggest that communities are located in lowland river valleys at elevations between 890 and 1560 m (2930-5120 feet). Sites are low-lying sidebars or infilled side channels that are frequently flooded. Soils are reported as loamy or sandy-skeletal Typic and Mollic Fluvaquents. <i>Distichlis spicata</i> and <i>Schoenoplectus pungens</i> are abundant and codominate this lush herbaceous streamside community. Common native wetland graminoids and forbs also include <i>Eleocharis palustris, Equisetum laevigatum, Juncus arcticus ssp. littoralis, Muhlenbergia asperifolia</i>, and <i>Pluchea odorata var. odorata</i>.
