Name: Spartina patens - Thinopyrum pycnanthum Grassland Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This dune grassland of central New England occurs on the interface between upper salt marshes and sand dunes. These low dunes may be periodically flooded by storm tides, most frequently during the winter when plants are dormant. The association is characterized by a dominance of <i>Spartina patens, Elymus repens</i>, or <i>Thinopyrum pycnanthum</i>. All three species may be present or one may occur alone. Other associates are rare, but when present may include <i>Ammophila breviligulata, Oenothera biennis, Artemisia campestris ssp. caudata, Solidago sempervirens</i>, and <i>Rosa rugosa</i>.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:34797-{7952BD4A-5FEE-46D0-83AA-FD4BEF46E9CF} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
