jonc aggloméré
<em>Juncus conglomeratus</em>, the compact rush, is a perennial herbaceous plant in the family Juncaceae. Widely distributed across Europe, North America, Australia, and parts of South America including Brazil, it typically inhabits wet meadows, marshes, lake shores, stream banks, and damp grasslands. The species is characterized by its dense, spherical flowerheads borne partway up stiff, cylindrical, dark green stems that can reach up to 100 centimeters in height. Like other rushes, it is well adapted to waterlogged and seasonally flooded conditions, often forming dense stands in wetland margins and poorly drained grassland. Common rush is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, with stable populations across its broad distribution range. The plant reproduces both sexually through wind-pollinated flowers and vegetatively through rhizomes. It provides important habitat and cover for wetland invertebrates, nesting birds such as warblers, and small mammals. Seeds are dispersed by water, wind, and animals. The species is sometimes confused with <em>Juncus effusus</em> (soft rush) but can be distinguished by its compact, globose flowerheads. Biological traits such as average lifespan, body measurements, and diet remain poorly documented in standardized ecological databases for this species.
