1. Many plants with origins in the aquarium trade have subsequently become serious environmental weeds in various countries, such as water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), Salvinia (Salvinia molesta), East Indian Hygrophila (Hygrophila polysperma), Cabomba (Cabomba caroliniana), Asian Marshweed (Limnophila sessiliflora), water lettuce (Pistia stratiotes), and Melaleuca quinquenervia.
2. This key allows you to identify genera of freshwater aquatic and wetland plants currently cultivated commercially in nurseries around the world for the aquarium and pond plant trade as well as some genera grown in private collections or in association with ornamental ponds.
3. The aquarium and pond plant industry is dynamic though; explorations are constantly undertaken to find new aquatic plants suitable for introduction to the industry, while artificial hybrids of already-established species are constantly being produced to generate new, more attractive plants.
4. Preventing the introduction of invasive aquatic weeds into new areas, and slowing their dispersal once introduced, requires correct identification, yet the sheer diversity and phenotypic plasticity of aquatic plants makes their identification a challenge.
5. This movement across international borders is of great concern, particularly since many aquatic plants have the ability to disperse widely through a remarkably effective variety of vegetative and sexual mechanisms.
6. Aquatic, semi-aquatic, and amphibious plants are exported, largely from tropical and subtropical regions, to countries around the world.
7. Please see the Aquarium & Pond Plants of the World website for proper guidelines on use and citation of images.
8. The worldwide trade in plants for use in aquaria and ponds is a multi-million dollar industry.
9. Serious ecological consequences can result when these plants are released into waterways, where they can become dominant and displace native plants.
10. This key is designed to be used by people with varying degrees of knowledge, from aquatic plant hobbyists to expert botanists.
11. Aquatic weed species on the U.S. Federal Noxious Weed list are represented in 24 of the key's genera.
