I hope Ranunculus aquaticus. Ranunculus trichophyllus Yes Sir. Thanks.. After posting, I realized that It was not R.aquaticus. This plant is not from India; but I like to know the name of this. Is this any Geraniaceae?
Habit: aquatic emergent herb
Habitat: freshwater
Location: Camaruge, France
Date: 06 May 2014 May be a Ranunculus sp. May be Ranunculus trichophyllus… May be Cabomba caroliniana? not indian plant this is not Cabomba sp. The plant is Ranunculus aquatilis var. diffusus Thank you Sir for the ID. R.aquatilis (Common water crowfoot) is common throughout Europe, produce white flowers, floating leaves deeply lobed into broad wedge shaped segments (Polunin, 1969. Flowers of Europe). .

Dear colleagues
the plants from Harwan, Fortnight and also Camargue, France, are R. trichphyllus Chaix. The plant from Dhorpata needs to be checked for R. himalaicus Tamura. Correct taxonomy below:
Ranunculus aquatilis L., Sp. Pl.: 556 (1753). – Type from Europe (Netherlands or Sweden). The species is restricted to temperate Europe with some extensions to the southern Medterranean and West Asia. Other mentionings are based on misidentification.
= Ranunculus aquaticus Neck., Delic. Gallo-Belg.: 242 (1768). -Type from France, may as well be regarded as orthographic variant of R. aquatilis L.
Ranunculus trichophyllus Chaix, Pl. Vapinc.: 31 (1785), nom. cons. prop. – Type from France. The species occurs in the northern hemisphere and may be on the Australian mainland. Other mentionings are misidentifications.
≡ Ranunculus trichophyllus Chaix in Villars, Hist. Pl. Dauph. 1: 335 (1786).
≡ Batrachium trichophyllum (Chaix) Bosch, Prodr. Fl. Bat.: 7 (1850). – Batrachium is no longer being regarded a separate genus but a section of Ranunculus.
= Ranunculus peucedanifolius All., Fl. Pedem. 2: 53 (1785), nom. rej. prop. – Type from Italy.
= Ranunculus aquatilis L. var. diffusus Withering, Arr. Brit. Pl. ed., 3, 2: 507 (1796). – Type from Britain.
– Ranunculus aquatilis L. var. diffusus sensu Whittemore et auct. amer. – An ambiguous taxon which contains several species, besides R. trichophyllus also R. longirostris Godr., R. subrigidus W.B. Drew, R. codyanus Boivin, and may be others.
Ranunculus himalaicus Tamura, J.Geobot. 26(3), 68, 9 (1978); Rajbhabdari & Rai, Handb. Fl. Pl, Nepal 1: 420 (2020); Kumar Ghimire et al., Fl. Kailash. Sacr. Landscape Nepal 1: 259 (2021). – Type from Nepal.

There is a typo in the first paragraph. it must read ‘trichophyllus’.
