Name: Sesuvium verrucosum Desert Salt Mudflat Scrub Alliance Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: Stands have an open scrub canopy characterized by saline wet species such as <i>Sesuvium verrucosum</i>. Other species present may include <i>Atriplex</i> spp., <i>Distichlis spicata, Eleocharis palustris, Sporobolus</i> spp., <i>Suaeda moquinii</i>, or <i>Tiquilia</i> spp. Ephemeral herbaceous species may have high cover periodically.
