Utricularia vulgaris, Linn. Hardy aquatic: sts. a few inches to 3 ft. long, with crowded 2-3 pinnately divided floating lvs. 1/2 - 1 in. long, provided with numerous bladders and yellow fls. 1/2 in. long or more, borne in few-fld. racemes: scapes 6-8 in. high: corolla closed, with reflexed sides and a conical blunt spur. Eurasia, in ponds and channels. Gn. 28, p. 403.—Sometimes listed among aquatic plants. What is considered by some to be the same species occurs far northward in N. Amer.; represented in the U. S., by var. americana, Gray, with a more slender and rather acute spur. Some authors consider the American plant to be distinct, and it then takes the name U. macrorhiza, LeConte, distinguished from the Eurasian material by longer sts., shape and direction of spur and reduced or rudimentary stolons. Sometimes collected for aquaria. CH
