Name: Panicum hemitomon - Ludwigia sphaerocarpa Marsh Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This association represents Quaternary Sand Ridge flatwoods ponds of the West Gulf Coastal Plain. This type is known only from Hardin and Newton counties, Texas. These ponds exhibit an extremely fluctuating water table with floating peat mats present. They are graminoid-dominated, generally with a layer of tall wetland grasses and sedges above a layer of semi-aquatic herbs. They tend to lack woody plant species, but may contain scattered, stunted <i>Nyssa biflora</i> and stems of <i>Morella cerifera</i>. Most species typically found in related flatwoods ponds of the region are absent from this type. <i>Ludwigia sphaerocarpa</i> and <i>Panicum hemitomon</i> are apparently the common and/or characteristic species of this type. Also present are <i>Eriocaulon compressum, Xyris fimbriata, Carex glaucescens, Carex verrucosa, Bacopa caroliniana, Sphagnum macrophyllum, Proserpinaca pectinata, Gratiola brevifolia, Juncus repens, Rhynchospora cephalantha</i>, and <i>Centella erecta</i>. <i>Eleocharis elongata</i> and <i>Schoenoplectus etuberculatus</i> are not found outside this association in the West Gulf Coastal Plain.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:36539-{5AAFC06E-7EE2-4CCF-8C8C-31175844AE45} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
