Project title
The taxonomy of floating-leaved Potamogeton species in Australia
Project details
With the exception of Potamogeton octandrus, all floating-leaved Potamogeton are combined in current use under the name of Potamogeton tricarinatus. In the past 17 names have been published for these pondweeds giving an insight into the confusion. This study aims to solve the confusion and to establish names in current use for the different species within the P. tricarinatus complex.
