Name: Hydrilla verticillata Herbaceous Vegetation Reference: Southeastern Ecology Working Gro... Description: This aquatic vegetation, dominated by the invasive alien plant <i>Hydrilla verticillata</i>, is found in natural lakes and anthropogenic impoundments. Stands of this ruderal vegetation are dominated by <i>Hydrilla verticillata</i> often to the exclusion of all other species. Since its introduction, this plant species has rapidly spread across the southeastern United States. Its spread into anthropogenic impoundment lakes is exacerbated by the transport of propagules on boat propellers. It produces vegetative propagules known as turions, which can resist desiccation for long periods of time.  Accession Code: VB.CC.34970.CEGL004702 Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
