Suaeda
__NOTOC__ ''Suaeda'' is a genus of plants also known as seepweeds and sea-blites. Most species are confined to saline or alkaline soil habitats, such as coastal salt-flats and tidal wetlands. Many species have thick, succulent leaves, a characteristic seen in various plant genera that thrive in salty habitats (halophile plants). There are about 110 species in the genus ''Suaeda''. The most common species in northwestern Europe is ''S. maritima''. It grows along the coasts, especially in saltmarsh areas, and is known in Britain as "common sea-blite", but as "herbaceous seepweed" in the USA. It is also common along the east coast of North America from Virginia northward. One of its varieties is common in tropical Asia on the land-side edge of mangrove tidal swamps. Another variety of this polymorphic species is common in tidal zones all around Australia (''Suaeda maritima var. australis'' is also classed as ''S. australis''). On the coasts of the Mediterranean Sea a common ''Sua ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Suaeda Vera
''Suaeda vera'', also known as shrubby sea-blite, Retrieved 29 June 2012 shrubby seablight or in the USA sometimes as alkali seepweed, is a species of flowering plant in the family Amaranthaceae (formerly classified under the Chenopodiaceae). It is a small shrub, with very variable appearance over its wide range. It is a halophyte, and occurs in arid and semi-arid saltflats, salt marshes and similar habitats. Taxonomy This species was first described according to the modern Linnaean system of taxonomy by Linnaeus himself in 1753, who called the species ''Chenopodium fruticosum''. A student of his, Peter Forsskål, joined an expedition undertaking a scientific exploration of Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Yemen and further in 1760. Only one explorer survived the journey, but Forsskål's journal and notes made it safely back to Copenhagen, and in 1775 his new data was summarised by the last remaining member of the expedition. Forsskål named a number of ''Suaeda'' species from the region, in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Suaeda Maritima
''Suaeda maritima'' is a species of flowering plant in the family Amaranthaceae known by the common names herbaceous seepweed and annual seablite. Description It is a yellow-green shrub with fleshy, succulent leaves and green flowers. It grows to about 35 cm in salt marsh A salt marsh or saltmarsh, also known as a coastal salt marsh or a tidal marsh, is a coastal ecosystem in the upper coastal intertidal zone between land and open saltwater or brackish water that is regularly flooded by the tides. It is domin ...es. Retrieved 5 September 2012. It is edible as a leaf vegetable, and due to its high salt content it can be used in combination with other foods as a seasoning. It is found worldwide, but in North America it is primarily located on the northern east coast. Habitat This plant resides in aquatic, terrestrial, and wetland habitats. But mainly in salt marshes and sea shores, usually below the high water mark. Additionally, ''Suaeda maritima'' is able to catch ...

Suaeda Aegyptiaca
''Suaeda aegyptiaca'' is a species of succulent plant in the family Amaranthaceae (formerly classified under the Chenopodiaceae), and salt-tolerant (halophyte) plant that is distributed in eastern North Africa, the Near East and West Asia. Local vernacular names for this plant in Qatar are ''juliman'', ''guluman'', ''ikhreet'' or ''hamd''. Taxonomy The species was first described under the basionym ''Chenopodium aegyptiacum'' in 1757 by Fredrik Hasselqvist, an early Swedish scientific explorer of the Levant and Arabia, and a student of Linnaeus. Hasselqvist collected the holotype in Alexandria, Egypt, although the ''Suaeda'' specialist Helmut Freitag stated in 1989 that it is probably lost. Although it has bounced around between genera over the centuries, at present the taxon is considered to belong within the genus ''Suaeda''. It was moved to the genus ''Suaeda'' by the well-known Israeli botanist Daniel Zohary in 1957, also sometimes incorrectly said to be 1955. Although th ...
