	~~__NOTOC__{{Plantbox~~		'''''Spartina''''', commonly known as '''cordgrass''' or '''cord-grass''', is a genus of 14 [[species]] of [[grass]]es in the family [[Poaceae]]. They are native to the coasts of the [[Atlantic Ocean]] in western and southern [[Europe]], northwest and southern [[Africa]], the [[Americas]] and the southern Atlantic Ocean islands; one or two species also occur on the [[North America]]n [[Pacific Ocean]] coast and in [[freshwater]] habitats inland in the Americas. The highest species diversity is on the east coasts of North America and [[South America]], particularly [[Florida]].
	~~\| name =~~ ''~~LATINNAME~~'' ~~<!--- replace LATINNAME with the actual latin name -->~~
	~~\| common_names = <!--- if multiple~~, ~~list all, if none, leave blank~~ -->		They form large, often dense [[clonal colony\|colonies]], particularly on [[coast]]al [[salt marsh]]es, and grow quickly. The species vary in size from 0.3-2 m tall. Many of the species will produce [[Hybrid (biology)\|hybrids]] if they come into contact.

	S. cynosuroides, Roth (S. polystachya, Willd.), on the Atlantic and S. foliosa, Trin., on the Pacific coast act as mud-binders and are important factors in the natural reclamation of salt-marshes.
