This aquatic species with a wide circumboreal distribution is present in almost all regions of Italy. It grows in stagnant or slowly flowing waters, from sea level to about 800 m. The species is common in the central belt of the Sardinian temporary ponds. The genus name derives from the Greek 'myrios' (countless, thousands) and 'phyllon' (leaf), referring to the leaves which are divided into many segments; the species name refers to the leaves, that arranged in whorls along the stem. Flowering period: June to September. |
Italian name(s): Millefoglio d'acqua ascellare (Italia), Miriofillo verticillato (Italia).
