Along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of North America, both species feed exclusively on the phloem sap of cordgrass, Spartina alterniflora. |
Efforts are now being made to remove these cordgrass species, as the damages are slowly being recognised. |
For example, cattails, bulrushes, cordgrass, sphagnum moss, bald cypress, willows, mangroves, sedges, rushes, arrowheads, and water plantains usually occur in wetlands. |
When we arrived in the marsh, tussocks of cordgrass and black need-lerush poked up here and there from the glassy water. |
The intertidal zone is also a good place to find plant life in the sea, where mangroves or cordgrass or beach grass might grow. |
Prairie cordgrass dominated some areas of wet prairie, especially in the northern parts of the site, whereas bluejoint and muhly grass dominated others. |
