Abstract
For many years physiologists, ecologists and plant sociologists have studied the halophytes and their habitats (Ellenberg, 1988). And we can see many papers studied the relationship between environmental factors and vegetation for halophilous plants, and topographical study in salt marsh or tidal flat (e.g. Linke, 1939; Gillner, 1960; Ellenberg, 1992). The common reed, Phragmites australis (Cay. Ex Roem. Schult.) Trin ex Steud., is a cosmopolitan, large perennial grass, with a presence on all continents (Holm et al., 1977), and well studied comparatively (e.g. Miroalav, 1999). On the other hand, Phacelurus latifolius (Steud) Ohwi is a halophyte whose habitat is in salt marsh and whose distribution is in East Asia, hardly we can see a paper for a relationship between environmental factors and vegetation or topographical study with it.
