Rhynchospora spp. - Sarracenia spp. Seep Group | NatureServe Biotics 2019
click to update datacart
Name: Rhynchospora spp. - Sarracenia spp. Seep Group Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This group includes wet, fire-maintained, herbaceous seepage vegetation in the Atlantic and Gulf coastal plains, from the North Carolina sandhills, extending to northern Florida and to eastern Texas. These oligotrophic (nutrient-poor) wetlands are generally found on moderate to gentle, or almost imperceptible slopes maintained by constant seepage zones such as perched water tables. Examples are typically <i>Rhynchospora</i> spp.-dominated and are often species-rich. <i>Sarracenia</i> spp. are notable indicators. Shrubs frequently encroach in the absence of frequent fire (every 2-5 years). Due to greater topographic isolation, the most interior examples are often naturally shrubbier.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:39990-{2DEE5B7B-2B14-4BCC-818B-8DC540085087} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
