Preferred label Marsh ragwort meadows
Definition Wet meadows and water-meadows of the lowlands of Britain, northern Germany, Poland, the Netherlands, Belgium, France and northwestern Spain, developed on nutrient-rich, acidocline alluvions of rivers and brooks with a fluctuating water regime in which [Senecio aquaticus] and [Bromus racemosus] are usually prominent, accompanied by a variable cortège; [Potentilla palustris] and [Menyanthes trifoliata] characterize mesotrophic stands, [Ranunculus auricomus] and [Primula elatior] somewhat more base-rich ones. [Carex disticha] is usually present and sometimes abundant, marking a transition towards [Magnocaricion] communities of unit 53.211. At higher altitudes, above 250 m, on base-poor soils, these communities evolve towards [Polygonum bistorta]-dominated communities of unit 37.215.
