Name: Avicennia germinans - Laguncularia racemosa Forest Group Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This group includes tidal mangrove wetlands of the Caribbean basins dominated or codominated by <i>Avicennia germinans, Laguncularia racemosa</i>, and/or <i>Conocarpus erectus</i>. These forests are in hypersaline flats or lagoons; that is, basins which may have water of various salinities, and tidal brackish areas which are not dominated by <i>Rhizophora mangle</i>. This group also includes short, tidal mangrove forests on seasonally flooded peats of interior depressions in the Florida Keys and southern peninsular Florida. The canopy of these basin mangrove communities is usually 3-12 m high, closed, and consists of a variable mixture of <i>Rhizophora mangle</i> (present but not dominant), <i>Avicennia germinans, Laguncularia racemosa</i>, and <i>Conocarpus erectus</i>.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:39742-{1D9CB4A3-AB1F-4EFC-BD04-683BC868A932} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
