Name: Polygonum spp. - Phanopyrum gymnocarpon Shoreline Wet Meadow Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This association is documented from an herbaceous slough of the Alabama River at Haines Island in Monroe County, Alabama. It is a seasonally or perhaps semipermanently flooded herbaceous marsh with some beaver activity. There are very sparse widely scattered trees of <i>Taxodium distichum</i> and <i>Salix nigra</i>, and shrubs of <i>Cephalanthus occidentalis, Salix nigra, Acer saccharinum</i>, and <i>Populus deltoides</i>. The dominant plants are all herbaceous, most dominant are <i>Polygonum</i> spp. and <i>Phanopyrum gymnocarpon</i>; near dominant taxa (in decreasing order) include <i>Sagittaria latifolia, Sesbania vesicaria, Lycopus</i> spp., <i>Alternanthera philoxeroides, Mimulus</i> sp., <i>Saururus cernuus, Cyperus</i> sp., <i>Bidens</i> sp., <i>Boehmeria cylindrica, Triadenum walteri, Polygonum punctatum, Strophostyles helvola, Ludwigia decurrens</i>, and <i>Ludwigia</i> sp. This association is expected to occur elsewhere in open bottomland sloughs in the Coastal Plain within the range of <i>Phanopyrum gymnocarpon</i>, from North Carolina to northern Florida, Arkansas, and southeastern Texas. This association is distinguished from others in the same alliance by the codominance of <i>Phanopyrum gymnocarpon</i> with <i>Polygonum</i> spp.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:36608-{629C1D52-BA47-4E0F-AA9E-8BA0EFF4FEC8} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
