Attaching here a small sized pic of another aquatic plant that i thought was the same as this one (with the monkey-puzzle-butterfly<\/b>).<\/span> but this attached pic doesn’t tally with yours shots.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

This plant is clearly distinct from the one in your previous post.<\/p>\n

\n

Yes Sir, it is another species, your document<\/a>\u00a0tells me so. But, as i said earlier, i thought both were same. However, i will post a seperate document seeking ID of this one too.<\/p>\n

the uploaded herb photo is of Alternanthera philoxeroides<\/i> (Mart.) Griseb. from Amaranthaceae<\/i> family.<\/p>\n

Chenopodiaceae and Amaranthaceae Week: NS 007: Alternanthera philoxeroides from Kaithal:<\/a>\u00a0This aquatic weed was shot from a village pond<\/span> in 2012… Alternanthera philoxeroides<\/i> (Mart.) Griseb. the alligator weed<\/b>…<\/p>\n

\n

Yes … Very good photographs<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Thanks for sharing these beautiful photographs. This species is one of the most predominant invasive plants in the world<\/span>. It is available in the markets of West Bengal as leafy vegetables and locally known as \u201cChhenchi shak<\/b>\u201d and has really good taste.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

yes. a bad weed. some eat it, but at their own peril
\nit supposedly concentrates heavy metals in shaloow water ways or canals…
\n<\/span>only a very large BW beetle eats it… in nature…. could be a famine food…
\nhave not seen it in neighbourhood markets in south 24 paraganas’cities,
\nbut as … says it must be available in local areas where it grows….\u00a0 Thanks\u00a0… for the name<\/p>\n

\n

This is a very bad weed… must be eradicated where found…
\n<\/span>please read pg 12 of this pdf<\/a> from Australia dept of BIOSECURITY
\nI was distrubed by the numbers in reduction in crop production due to this weed in china… pg 12 of pdf or sec1:10 in its own parlance….
\nwe dont have a dept of BIOSECURITY do we?<\/p>\n

\n

its other name is ALLIGATOR WEED. WONDER WHY?<\/p>\n

\n
\n

I have no knowedge of this being used as a food here in our state …only considered a weed… usually cannot compete with Eichhornia<\/i> which overpowers this….. Alligator may be due to its dominating nature….<\/p>\n

\n

It can invade mid Himalayan hills along water channels. I have recorded it from 1400m altitude near Naini Tal, Uttarakhand.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
