Especially Batis but also Salicornia often form nearly the whole vegetation,. Fig. 19. Sesuvium portulucastrum L. Part of a prostrate, rooting branch (about '^/s nat. size.) growing often belt-like in such a way that we have a distinct Batis or Salicornia association. Besides on these larger marsh-like plains, this vegetation is also common inside the mangrove vegetation where it commonly occurs together with Laguncularia, where this is growing more scattered. It is especially Batis which is found here, and which, overshadowed by Laguncularia^ becomes more erect than on the open localities; but in dense Laguncularia-forest Batis disappears altogether; here the ground is quite bare and the same is the case below the Rhizophoras, which is easily understood where this is growing in deep water but even where the bottom is nearly laid dry I have not seen any vegetation of salt-bushes below Bhizophora, and the reason is certainly that it is too dark Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Botaniske forening i Kbenhavn; Botaniske forening i Kbenhavn.
