Name: Nuphar advena - Nuphar sagittifolia Tidal Freshwater Marsh Alliance
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: These tidal mudflats of the eastern United States are dominated by species of <i>Nuphar</i>. Association dominants include <i>Nuphar advena</i> or <i>Nuphar sagittifolia</i>. This alliance includes vegetation of freshwater tidal rivers where the water depth is approximately 2-3 m or less. <i>Nuphar</i> sp. and <i>Nymphaea odorata</i> are dominant; these species quickly spread from their rhizomes and shade out other vegetation. Other species may include <i>Potamogeton epihydrus, Peltandra virginica, Nymphoides cordata</i>, and <i>Zizania aquatica</i>. In Delaware, this alliance occurs in nearly pure stands below mean low water on mudflats that are exposed at low tide and on the submerged point bars of stream meanders.
