Oligotrophic waters containing very few minerals of sandy plains (Littorelletalia uniflorae)
Description (English)
Shallow oligotrophic waters with few minerals and base poor, with an aquatic to amphibious low perennial vegetation belonging to the Littorelletalia uniflorae order, on oligotrophic soils of lake and pond banks (sometimes on peaty soils). This vegetation consists of one or more zones, dominated by Littorella, Lobelia dortmanna or Isoetes, although not all zones may not be found at a given site.
