Abstract

Ceratophyllum submersum L, (Ceratophyllaceae), collected from Ballia district in Uttar Pradesh is the first report of this species for Gangetic Plain. Three or four times forked leaves and nutlets with a single apical spine distinguish this species from the closely allied Ceratophyllum demersum L.
