Family Typhaceae
The Typhaceae (cattail family) contains the genus Typha, which was the sole genus of the family until the APG III system added the genus Sparganium (bur-reeds) in 2009 by merging the closely-related Sparganiaceae family into Typhaceae.
Typha
Girona 009.JPG Typha latifolia Cattails, Typha spp., are wetland plants that are native to much of the world. Broad-leaved cattails (T. latifolia) are considered to be North American natives, while the native status of narrow-leaved cattails (T. angustifolia) in North America is in question.Andrew McKenzie-Gopsill, et al. (2012), "No evidence for niche segregation in a North American Cattail (Typha) species complex." Ecol Evol. 2012 May; 2(5): 952–961. In either case it is thought that narrowleaf cattails were introduced to most of inland New York from coastal regions, with the possible exception of central New York's inland salt marshes,Jeff Gillies (2013) "Surveys detail inner workings of rare inland salt marshes of Northeast U.S." Environmental Monitor, Dec. 13, 2013. where some think that T. angustifolia may be native.Troy Weldy, David Werier, and Andrew Nelson (2015) "Typha angustifolia L." New York Flora Atlas. New York Flora Association, Albany, New York.
The first record of T. angustifolia in North America is from northeast coastal regions in 1820, and it appears to have remained along the coast for the remainder of the 19th century. But by the end of the 20th century, it had migrated to the west coast, and as far south as Arkansas. Along its path, it seems to have preferred "early successional habitats with basic, calcareous, or somewhat salty soils."Stefanie Miklovic (2000) "Typha angustifolia Management: Implications for Glacial Marsh Restoration." Restoration and Reclamation Review. University of Minnesota. 6(2): Fall 2000. It is thought that ditches along salted roadways may have helped facilitate the migration from coastal marshes. Jessica G. Shih & Sarah A. Finkelstein (2008) "Range dynamics and invasive tendencies in Typha latifolia and Typha angustifolia in eastern North America derived from herbarium and pollen records." Wetlands, 28(1): 1.
