Name: Cakile edentula Great Lakes Beach Alliance
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This alliance describes sparsely vegetated sandy shores of the Great Lakes. <i>Cakile edentula var. lacustris</i> is characteristic; other associates include <i>Chamaesyce polygonifolia, Juncus arcticus ssp. littoralis, Lathyrus japonicus, Xanthium strumarium</i>, and <i>Argentina anserina</i>. This vegetation occurs on sandy beaches of the Great Lakes where wave action causes active sand movement, preventing most plants from becoming established.
