Mediterranean upper-mid saltmarshes and saline and brackish reed, rush and sedge beds
Open to closed rush communities on the high zone of Mediterranean salt marshes, where flooding frequency (by seawater) is low. The vegetation generally occupies small belts and patches, in line with the limited tidal range of the Mediterranean Sea. Inbetween the rushes, a range of halophytic grasses, herbs and low shrubs may be found.
