Periodically inundated shores with pioneer and ephemeral vegetation
Description (English)
Muddy, sandy and gravelly shores and dried-up bottoms of lakes and rivers, with moderate cover of vascular plants. These include annuals (e.g. Bidens spp., Cyperus spp., Persicaria spp.), developing during the exposure phase as well as perennials tolerant of temporary total immersion.
