Name: Equisetum fluviatile - Eleocharis palustris Marsh Alliance Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: Emergent cover is greater than 25%, and floating-leaved and submergent cover is low. Emergent graminoids &lt;1 m dominate the stands, including <i>Equisetum fluviatile</i> and/or <i>Eleocharis palustris</i>. Associated species of low constancy include <i>Glyceria borealis, Isoetes tenella, Potamogeton gramineus</i>, and <i>Utricularia macrorhiza</i>. A layer of partially decomposed stalks may be present. This low graminoid marsh alliance is found in the subboreal regions of the Great Lakes and perhaps more widely in Canada. Stands occur in wave-washed shores, sandbars, and stream channels. Substrate is mineral soil (often sand), sometimes held together by root mats. The water regime is permanently flooded to intermittently exposed, and water depth is generally less than 1 m.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:38881-{B8BABB3A-3ABE-4239-9D28-1B41839E4239} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
