71 51 The ground with a close sod. Eleocharis palustris is often seen in such close stands as to completely dominate wide stretches and to keep out practically every other plant. Occasionally one finds a cleanup of Pamenlaris ameica or Catabrosa aquatica in such places, or the stems of some of the above named relicts. But where the association is more open the flora is more varied. A common type of distribution is to have a rather thru cover E. palustris with an almost equal mixture of the Junci , and from this the relation varies in both directions. Sometimes on the sandy shores of lakes and ponds throughout the region a perfect carpet of E. acuminata or E. acicularis is developed just outside the water live in which may occur scattered colums of Scripi and Junci . There carpets are especially noticebly about the Cherry Co. lakes. It is here also that the carpets of Halerpestes cymbalaria cover the wet sand for many square meters. These patches are especially striking when the plants are in bloom. In the outer or or drier potrtions of the association such plants as Lycopus lucidus , L. americanus , Mentha canadensis , Lythrum alatrum , Steironema
