fresh water species... Ceratophyllum??

[Neelam Karle]

Saw these plants few years back on 14 July 2019 near Bhimashankar, Pune in the small puddles on our trail. Is it  Ceratophyllum sp.?

Thank you,

But the plant present in the habitat is not prominent for identification.

First plant is possibly Podostemon,aquatic under-water holotype, which is common here in Pune, Genus possibly decannenesis, the photographs on internet are emmersed variety so will look very different, this a unique feature of Podostemon. Another unlikely possibility is Limnophila, early submerged growth.. 

the second is another common aquatic plant, I posted here specimens from Lonavala.. no idea species so I am growing this hoping it bears flower.  Possibly aquatic plants  Glossostigma or Callitriche.

I can say definitely not Ceratophyllum.- Santhosh ji
