Type Concept: This community consists of beaverponds or other semipermanent impoundments (such as millponds) in highly acidic parts of the southeastern Coastal Plain, such as the Fall-line Sandhills of the Carolinas. This shallow aquatic community is dominated by Orontium aquaticum, Schoenoplectus etuberculatus, Eriocaulon decangulare, Schoenoplectus subterminalis, Juncus trigonocarpus, Juncus abortivus, Juncus spp., Brasenia schreberi, Eleocharis tuberculosa, Proserpinaca pectinata, Utricularia spp., Rhynchospora spp., and other wetland and aquatic plants.
