Name: Andropogon capillipes - Andropogon glaucopsis - Panicum spp. Wet Prairie & Basin Marsh Alliance
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: These are herbaceous wetlands which may also have evergreen shrubs and widely scattered trees, such as <i>Pinus elliottii var. elliottii, Gordonia lasianthus</i>, or <i>Taxodium ascendens</i>. The herb stratum is typically very well-developed and diverse, with many graminoid species, especially <i>Andropogon capillipes, Andropogon glaucopsis, Panicum hemitomon, Panicum verrucosum</i>, and <i>Rhynchospora</i> spp. Some evergreen shrubs are usually present, including <i>Hypericum brachyphyllum, Lyonia lucida, Lyonia ferruginea, Morella cerifera, Serenoa repens</i>, and <i>Vaccinium darrowii</i>. Shrubs may be covered with the evergreen liana <i>Smilax laurifolia</i>. This wet prairie and basin marsh vegetation of the South Atlantic Coastal Plain and Florida Peninsula is found in seasonally wet seeps, seasonally flooded flats (characteristically interspersed with cypress domes), and low areas in flatwoods. Included are medium-hydroperiod herbaceous graminoid vegetation of large depression wetlands such as Paynes Prairie, Okefenokee Swamp, and some of the large lakes of central Florida.
