Description
S. striata is a perennial graminoid of the Poaceae family that is native to North America.[1]
Distribution
S. striata is found in the southeastern United States as far west as Texas and as far north as Maine.[1]
Ecology
Habitat
Habitats that S. striata is found include marshes, interdune swales, ditches, and swamps.[2] Specimens have been collected from disturbed sandy areas, marshes, edge of dam, edge of lake, open area with palms, salt marsh, disturbed sandy pat of abandoned fields, clearing of pine flatwoods, and cypress gum swamp.[3]
Soils that are habitable for S. striata are medium to fine in texture.[1]
The grass has a medium tolerance for drought and is intolerant of shade.[1]
Phenology
S. striata has been observed to flower in July and October.[4]
Seed bank and germination
Seeds will begin to germinate in summer and through the fall.[1]
Fire ecology
The species was originally thought to have no tolerance for fire;[1] however, populations of Sacciolepis striata have been known to persist through repeated annual burning.[5]
