|---|---|
| Preferred label | Epilittoral |
| Definition | The epilittoral zones is beyond any direct influence of water cover along a sea shore line or a inland lakeside. The area is only influenced indirectly by a high ground water level and moist (and eventually salty) soil conditions. Only extreme storm surges reach here, or rare inland flood events along riparian areas. Vegetation cover, if present, is dominated by hygrophilous plants. |
