Note

This species is resolved as sister to the rest of the genus in morphology-based (Lehtonen 2006), DNA-based, and complete evidence analysis (Lehtonen & Myllys 2008), but nuclear DNA indicated a drastically different phylogenetic position for the species. Since Echinodorus berteroi is the type species of the genus, its phylogenetic position determines the generic name of the other species discussed here. Should more comprehensive studies in the future place E. berteroi in a non-monophyletic position with the other species discussed here, a new genus should be established for the remaining species. South American populations of E. berteroi are morphologically similar to those from North America, and proposed species (E. patagonicus, Spegazzini 1902; E. longilineatus, Rataj 2004) or subspecific (E. berteroi subsp. patagonicus, Rataj 2004) rankings for South American populations are not warranted.

Phenology

Flowering and fruiting throughout the year in South America, from April to October in the United States.^[1]
