Name: Ceratophyllum demersum Western Aquatic Vegetation
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: Habitat is low-elevation, low-gradient, eutrophic streams and rivers, ponds, lakes, and sloughs. This is a non-rooted aquatic association that is widespread in western Oregon, but it has not been sampled and little information is available. <i>Ceratophyllum demersum </i>forms dense, monotypic submerged beds that do not emerge above the surface of the water. Eutrophic conditions favored by this association may be enhanced by enriched runoff in agricultural or urban landscapes. Though a native species, <i>Ceratophyllum demersum </i>is a well-known pest in many lakes where rank aquatic vegetation interferes with recreation.
