Comm #11272	Carex hyalinolepis Tidal Herbaceous Vegetation » more details accession code: VB.CC.26352.CAREXHYALINOLEP	Eastern Ecology Working Group of...	0	This oligohaline marsh, dominated by Carex hyalinolepis, forms adjacent to main tidal river channels in the Chesapeake Bay. Carex hyalinolepis forms nearly monospecific stands. Associated species occurring with low cover include Hibiscus moscheutos ssp. moscheutos, Kosteletzkya virginica, and Spartina cynosuroides.

Comm #11274	Carex lacustris Herbaceous Vegetation » more details accession code: VB.CC.36979.CEGL002256	Midwestern Ecology Working Group...	0	This broad-leaved wet sedge meadow type occurs in the upper central midwestern region of the United States. Stands occur on floodplains, shallow bays of lakes and streams, and upland depressions. Soils are mineral or well-decomposed peat. Flooding is variable but typically is seasonal. The vegetation is dominated by tall sedges. Shrubs may have up to 25% cover. <i>Carex lacustris</i> forms almost mono-dominant stands. Occasionally other emergents, such as <i>Typha latifolia</i> or <i>Sagittaria</i> spp., may codominate. In Wisconsin this type is common in the northwest, where it typically intermingles with tall shrubs, especially <i>Salix</i> spp. (e.g., <i>Salix petiolaris</i>). Common herbaceous associates at low cover include <i>Doellingeria umbellata (= Aster umbellatus), Calamagrostis canadensis, Carex stricta, Solidago canadensis, Polygonum sagittatum, Verbena hastata, Impatiens capensis, Eupatorium maculatum</i>, and <i>Muhlenbergia glomerata</i>.
Comm #11275	Carex utriculata - Carex lacustris - (Carex vesicaria, Carex stricta) Herbaceous Vegetation » more details accession code: VB.CC.36627.CEGL002257	Midwestern Ecology Working Group...	0	This northern tall sedge community is found in the mixed conifer - hardwood zone of the Great Lakes region and north into the boreal regions of eastern Canada, with outliers in the Allegheny Mountains region of West Virginia and Maryland. Sites are found on floodplains, shallow bays of lakes and streams, beaver meadows, ditches, and occasionally in isolated basins, or on semi-floating mats. Hydrology is seasonally to semipermanently flooded. Substrate is mineral soil or well-decomposed peat. Tall coarse-leaved sedges dominate the vegetation layer, often creating a tussocky hummock microtopography. Shrubs can cover up to 25% of the area. Pools with submergents may also be present. Dominant graminoids include a number of Carices, including <i>Carex aquatilis, Carex lacustris, Carex lasiocarpa, Carex rostrata, Carex utriculata, Carex vesicaria</i>, and locally <i>Carex stricta</i>. Other graminoids include <i>Calamagrostis canadensis, Scirpus atrovirens, Scirpus cyperinus</i>, and in wetter areas, <i>Eleocharis palustris (= Eleocharis smallii)</i> and <i>Equisetum fluviatile</i>. Forbs include <i>Acorus calamus, Symphyotrichum lanceolatum var. lanceolatum (= Aster simplex), Campanula aparinoides, Eupatorium maculatum, Iris virginica var. shrevei (= Iris shrevei), Lycopus uniflorus, Poa palustris, Polygonum amphibium, Comarum palustre (= Potentilla palustris)</i>, and others. Diagnostic features include the general dominance by coarse-leaved sedges, wet, somewhat peaty soil conditions, and the mix of sub-boreal herbs with more temperate herbs.
Comm #11276	Borrichia frutescens / Spartina spartinae Shrubland » more details accession code: VB.CC.36294.CEGL004617	Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...	0	This association is an irregularly tidally flooded shrubland codominated by <i>Borrichia frutescens</i> and <i>Spartina spartinae</i>. In some occurrences, these are the only two species present. Other species can include <i>Prosopis reptans, Sarcocornia pacifica, Lycium carolinianum var. quadrifidum</i>, and <i>Batis maritima</i>.

Comm #11278	Eleocharis (elongata, equisetoides) - Rhynchospora tracyi Semipermanently Flooded Herbaceous Vegetation » more details accession code: VB.CC.26422.ELEOCHARISELONG	Southeastern Ecology Working Gro...	0	This broadly defined type represents vegetation of deeper Coastal Plain depressional wetlands, typically dominated by aquatic Eleocharis spp., such as Eleocharis elongata, Eleocharis equisetoides and Eleocharis cellulosa, in the Atlantic Coastal Plain and the East Gulf Coastal Plain. Rhynchospora tracyi may also be present. These depressions can be of various geomorphic origins, including limesinks and interdune swales. Additional geographic types may be developed as more specific information becomes available.

Comm #11280	Scolochloa festucacea Herbaceous Vegetation » more details accession code: VB.CC.36692.CEGL002260	Midwestern Ecology Working Group...	0	This sprangletop marsh type is found in the northern Great Plains region of the United States and Canada. Stands occur on sites with standing water for part of the growing season. The water table may be above the surface for only a few weeks in spring after heavy rains or constantly until mid-summer. Stands dominated by <i>Scolochloa festucacea</i> can be found on marginally fresh to moderately saline stands. The soils are typically medium to fine-textured and often have an accumulation of organic matter. Graminoids 0.5-1.0 m tall dominate the moderately dense to dense vegetation cover. Forbs are not common and shrubs are very rare. <i>Scolochloa festucacea</i> is the single most abundant species and may occur in almost monotypic stands. Other abundant species include <i>Carex atherodes, Carex laeviconica, Eleocharis palustris, Glyceria grandis, Juncus balticus, Sium suave</i>, and <i>Typha latifolia</i>.
