Nuphar (from the Arabic). Nymphaea of some authors. Nymphaeaceae, Spatter-dock. Yellow PondLily. Several aquatic plants of the North Temperate Zone, with stout rootstocks creeping in the mud.

Leaves large, cordate-ovate or sagittate, some of which may be submerged and others either floating or standing erect above the water: fls. usually standing above the water, yellow or purplish, single on the scapes, the 5 or more large concave sepals constituting the showy part of the fl.; petals mostly numerous, small and simulating stamens, the latter numerous and short; ovary short, globular-ovoid, with 8-24 stigmas forming rays on its top: fr. an emersed caps.—Most of the nuphars are N. American. They grow in stagnant pools or on the margins of slow - running mud- bottom streams. Several species have been offered by dealers, but most of them have small value for the cultivator, although the foliage effects of N. advena may be striking. For cult., see Nymphaea and Aquatics.—The N. American species are monographed by Miller & Standley in Contrib. U. S. Nat. Herb. XVI, part 3 (1912). The nomenclature is discussed under Nymphaea.
