Dear all,

Please help me in identifying this Submersed aquatic plant. Flowers are minute (ca.2 mm across) with spongy 3-tepals. Could this be a Vallisneria sp.?

Please be carefull about taking photographs of submerged plants. Please note that if the tip of the basal rosette leaf  is pointed the species may be of Blyxa. But here the leaf tip is mre or less rounded. This is possibly Vallisneria spiralis.
Best wishes,
Dr. Subir K Ghosh
