| Preferred label | [Schoenus nigricans] fens |
| Definition | [Schoenus nigricans]-dominated or -rich communities of rich fens of nemoral, Pannonic and Pontic Europe, of wide distribution, though less common in Alpine and peri-Alpine regions than the next unit, and confined to lower altitudes. Rushes, [Juncus subnodulosus] in British and western continental inland fens, [Juncus balticus] in dune-slack fens, are often abundant. Other accompanying species include [Carex lepidocarpa], [Carex hostiana], [Carex panicea], [Carex pulicaris], [Eriophorum latifolium], [Molinia caerulea], [Dactylorhiza incarnata], [Dactylorhiza praetermissa], [Dactylorhiza purpurella], [Dactylorhiza traunsteineri], [Dactylorhiza traunsteinerioides], [Epipactis palustris], [Parnassia palustris], [Pinguicula vulgaris], brown mosses and, locally, [Pinguicula lusitanica] and [Drosera anglica]. These communities have enormously regressed, particularly in northern and northwestern continental Europe, and are extinct in many regions. |
