Name: Typha domingensis - Eleocharis rostellata Gulf Coastal Plain Oligohaline Tidal Marsh Alliance
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This provisional alliance comprises two poorly described oligohaline tidal marsh associations of the Gulf Coastal Plain. <i>Eleocharis rostellata</i> and <i>Typha domingensis</i> are two characteristic species, with <i>Rhynchospora colorata</i> and <i>Rhynchospora microcarpa</i>. This type typically consists of nearly pure stands of <i>Typha domingensis</i>, in deeply flooded tidal estuarine waters, with the substrate rarely exposed. This alliance also includes a tidal marsh community dominated by <i>Eleocharis rostellata, Rhynchospora colorata</i>, and <i>Rhynchospora microcarpa</i> which occupies small-scale openings in <i>Juncus roemerianus</i> marshes along the northern Gulf of Mexico. Infrequent tidal flooding and calcareous conditions are key environmental characteristics of this community, which is known from Panhandle Florida and southern coastal Baldwin County, Alabama. More information is needed on both of these component alliances.
