Descripción:

Basin marshes are seasonally inundated wetlands that occur in large basins, typically with peaty substrates. They have long hydroperiods, remaining flooded for extended portions of the year. Fire is a periodic influence, and in its absence, these marshes may be invaded by wetland trees.

Typical vegetation includes sawgrass ( Cladium jamaicense ), cattail (Typha spp. ), buttonbush ( Cephalanthus occidentalis ), and various mixed emergent species.
