N2 - Some 28 main vegetation units are distinguished, representing aquatic, reedswamp, fen and transitional fen/raised bog vegetation. These include Cladietum marisci, Caricetum elatae, Phragmites australis/Carex lasiocarpa and Schoenetum nigricantis communities. The ecology of the various communities is described, their floristic relationships to previously described comparable vegetation types in Ireland and Britain are considered, and the effects of drainage and past management on floristic composition and distribution are discussed. -from Authors
