Name: Decodon verticillatus Southeast Coastal Plain Shrub Swamp
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This swamp-loosestrife pond association is found in the coastal plains of the southeastern United States from North Carolina south to Florida, east to Alabama, and north in the interior to western Tennessee. This wetland vegetation is dominated by <i>Decodon verticillatus</i>, typically in peaty backwater or depression situations. Few other species are present because the <i>Decodon</i> is extremely dense; typically, the only other woody species that are common are <i>Cephalanthus occidentalis</i> and possibly <i>Itea virginica</i>. Coastal Plain and related examples occur in floodplain pools and on lakeshores, as well as possibly in depression ponds (but these primarily found in the Interior Highlands).
