Name: Nymphaea odorata - Nuphar (microphylla, variegata) Aquatic Vegetation
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This water-lily aquatic wetland type occurs throughout the upper midwestern region of the United States and adjacent Canada. Stands occur in open, slow-moving water on lakes and streams, often less than 0.5 m deep. The substrate is variable, from muck to sedimentary peat. Emergent vegetation cover is less than 25% and floating-leaved aquatics cover at least 25% of the surface. Typical dominants vary from stand to stand but include <i>Nymphaea odorata, Nuphar microphylla</i>, and <i>Nuphar variegata</i>. Other dominants may include <i>Brasenia schreberi</i> and <i>Potamogeton amplifolius</i>. A variety of emergent species can occur in this community.
