Generative characteristics

The protogynous, fragrant, nectariferous, [11] solitary, [8] [6] yellow-green, [8] up to 4 cm wide flowers [3] float on the water surface, or extend beyond it. [8] The flowers have six sepals. [9] [3] The gynoecium consists of 9–23 carpels. [3] The fleshy, [10] ovoid to broadly obovate, [9] ribbed, green, 2–5 cm long, and 2–5 cm wide fruit [3] bears 186–353 [11] 3-6 mm long seeds. [3]

Taxonomy

It was first published as Nymphaea advenaAiton by William Aiton in 1789. [12] [2] [13] It was placed into the genus NupharSm. as Nuphar advena(Aiton) W.T.Aiton published by William Townsend Aiton in 1811. [14] [15] It is placed in the section Nuphar sect. Astylus. [16]

Natural hybridisation

In the United Kingdom, it has hybridised with Nuphar lutea, resulting in the hybrid Nuphar × porphyranthera. [9] [17]

Etymology

The specific epithet advena means immigrant, [18] [10] outsider, foreigner, or stranger. [19]

Cytology

The chromosome count is 2n = 34. [20] The chloroplast genome is 160866 bp long. [21]

Distribution

It is native to Canada, the United States, Mexico, and Cuba. [2] It has been introduced to the United Kingdom. [5]

Conservation

The NatureServe conservation status is T5 Secure. [1]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Nymphaeaceae</span> Family of plants

Nymphaeaceae is a family of flowering plants, commonly called water lilies. They live as rhizomatous aquatic herbs in temperate and tropical climates around the world. The family contains five genera with about 70 known species. Water lilies are rooted in soil in bodies of water, with leaves and flowers floating on or rising from the surface. Leaves are oval and heart-shaped in Barclaya. Leaves are round, with a radial notch in Nymphaea and Nuphar, but fully circular in Victoria and Euryale.

<i>Victoria</i> (plant) Genus of aquatic plants

Victoria or giant waterlily is a genus of aquatic herbs in the plant family Nymphaeaceae. Its leaves have a remarkable size: Victoria boliviana produces leaves up to 3.2 metres (10 ft) in width. The genus name was given in honour of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom.

<i>Nymphaea</i> Genus of aquatic plants

Nymphaea is a genus of hardy and tender aquatic plants in the family Nymphaeaceae. The genus has a cosmopolitan distribution. Many species are cultivated as ornamental plants, and many cultivars have been bred. Some taxa occur as introduced species where they are not native, and some are weeds. Plants of the genus are known commonly as water lilies, or waterlilies in the United Kingdom. The genus name is from the Greek νυμφαία, nymphaia and the Latin nymphaea, which means "water lily" and were inspired by the nymphs of Greek and Latin mythology.
