Name: Phalaris arundinacea - Phragmites australis - Typha angustifolia Ruderal Wet Meadow & Marsh Group
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This group includes heavily disturbed marshes and wet meadows in the eastern half of the United States north of a line running from North Carolina to Arkansas, which are usually dominated or at least have a strong component of exotic species. This group is composed of herbaceous-dominated, seasonal to semipermanently flooded wetlands. Sites often have a history of significant disturbance such as heavy pasturing, chemical and soil run-off from nearby fields or developed areas, or alteration in hydrologic regimes. Along with the wide range in flooding regimes, there can be a wide variety of dominant species, some of which can form near monocultures. Some common dominants include <i>Lythrum salicaria, Phalaris arundinacea, Phragmites australis, Polygonum cuspidatum</i>, and <i>Typha</i> spp.
