Name: Ruppia maritima - Stuckenia pectinata Aquatic Vegetation
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: These are permanently or semipermanently flooded salt pools or pannes of New England characterized by <i>Ruppia maritima</i>. These deepwater pannes, pools, and ditches occur within high salt marsh and are influenced by impeded drainage. As a result, they are often hypersaline. Associated species can include <i>Stuckenia pectinata, Zannichellia palustris</i>, and purple-sulfur bacteria. <i>Bolboschoenus maritimus</i> borders the standing water in the northern portion of the range. This is the habitat for "marsh minnows," <i>Pungitius pungitius, Gasterosteus aculeatus</i>, and <i>Apeltes quadracus</i> and mummichog, <i>Fundulus heteroclitus</i>.
