Name: Eastern Chaco Marsh & Flooded Savanna Macrogroup Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: Grass savannas and other types of herbaceous meadows of the floodplain of the Pilcomayo River in the eastern Chaco region in Paraguay and northern Argentina. The vegetation communities include those closer to the river which get inundated up to 1.5-2 m for several months and those with a lower flooding regime. The former have no woody or shrub layer and are dominated by <i>Sorghastrum agrostoides, Panicum prionitis, Oryza subulata, Leersia hexandra, Cuphea racemosa, Aeschynomene montevidensis, Caperonia cordata, Byttneria scabra, Cyperus reflexus, Rhynchospora corymbosa, Panicum laxum, Poa pilcomayensis, Conyza bonariensis</i>, and <i>Paspalum intermedium</i>. The communities which experience a shorter flooding period include dense palm populations of <i>Copernicia alba</i>.  Accession Code: urn:lsid:vegbank.org:commConcept:40967-{681AC4CD-CCA7-4CFF-95B3-05031988E1A7} Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
