This oligohaline to mesohaline marsh occurs as a narrow band at the border between high salt marsh and the adjacent uplands in northern New England. Salinity input is a result of irregular flooding by spring tides and storm surges with freshwater input from runoff or groundwater discharge. Substrate is peat that is drier than that of high salt marsh vegetation. Small pannes tend to form in this marsh; they can be rather temporary. Local dominants include <i>Agrostis stolonifera, Juncus gerardii</i>, and <i>Spartina patens</i>. Associated species include <i>Symphyotrichum novi-belgii (= Aster novi-belgii), Solidago sempervirens, Festuca rubra, Spartina pectinata</i>, and <i>Schoenoplectus robustus</i>. In wetter areas, <i>Carex paleacea</i> can be strongly dominant. In ponded, but less frequently flooded areas, <i>Schoenoplectus tabernaemontani (= Scirpus tabernaemontani)</i> and/or <i>Juncus balticus var. littoralis (= Juncus arcticus var. littoralis)</i> can be locally dominant. Species occurring less frequently can include <i>Schoenoplectus pungens, Distichlis spicata, Triglochin maritima, Argentina anserina (= Potentilla anserina), Carex hormathodes, Ranunculus sceleratus, Panicum virgatum, Amaranthus cannabinus, Hierochloe odorata, Elymus virginicus, Teucrium canadense, Iris versicolor, Cuscuta gronovii, Impatiens capensis, Acorus calamus, Calystegia sepium, Typha angustifolia, Sanguisorba canadensis</i>, and <i>Phragmites australis</i>. Local pannes can form within this marsh community with distinctly different species composition. |

This type represents maritime holly forest of the lee sides of backdunes in New Jersey and Long Island, New York. It occurs in low areas behind backdunes where it is protected from overwash and salt spray. Substrate is sandy loam over coarse sand. The dominant tree is <i>Ilex opaca</i>. Other canopy associates can include <i>Amelanchier canadensis, Amelanchier laevis, Acer rubrum, Celtis occidentalis, Sassafras albidum, Quercus stellata, Quercus velutina</i>, and <i>Prunus serotina</i>. Characteristic shrubs include <i>Morella pensylvanica (= Myrica pensylvanica), Gaylussacia baccata, Rhus copallinum, Vaccinium corymbosum</i>. <i>Sambucus canadensis, Viburnum dentatum</i>, and <i>Toxicodendron vernix</i> can occur infrequently. Vines are particularly abundant, and include <i>Toxicodendron radicans, Smilax rotundifolia, Parthenocissus quinquefolia</i>, and <i>Vitis</i> spp. The herbaceous layer is sparsely to moderately developed and includes <i>Aralia nudicaulis, Maianthemum stellatum (= Smilacina stellata), Maianthemum canadense, Maianthemum racemosum (= Smilacina racemosa), Carex pensylvanica</i>, and <i>Cypripedium acaule</i>. In locally wetter, boggy areas within the forest <i>Nyssa sylvatica, Rhododendron viscosum, Vaccinium corymbosum, Photinia melanocarpa, Osmunda cinnamomea, Osmunda regalis</i>, and <i>Thelypteris palustris</i> occur abundantly. |

This association comprises coastal oak-holly forests of the Northeast. This forest occurs on mesic, moderately well-drained silts and sandy loams in low areas on the landscape that are sheltered from direct maritime influences. Canopy dominants include <i>Quercus velutina, Fagus grandifolia, Quercus alba, Acer rubrum</i>, and <i>Nyssa sylvatica</i>. <i>Ilex opaca</i> is abundant in the subcanopy. Other associated species that occur at low cover include <i>Amelanchier canadensis, Sassafras albidum</i>, and <i>Quercus alba</i>. Shrubs are common and include <i>Vaccinium corymbosum, Hamamelis virginiana, Viburnum recognitum</i>, and <i>Kalmia latifolia</i>. Vines are common but not usually abundant, and include such species as <i>Toxicodendron radicans, Parthenocissus quinquefolia, Smilax rotundifolia, Smilax glauca</i>, and <i>Vitis</i> spp. Characteristic herbs include <i>Trientalis borealis, Carex swanii</i>, and <i>Thelypteris noveboracensis</i>. |
