Wikipedia
horned pondweed
Zannichellia palustris, the horned pondweed, is a plant found in fresh to brackish waters in the United States (especially in the Chesapeake Bay), Europe, Asia, Australasia, and South America. It is recognizable by its long, thread like leaves, and "stringy" appearance. Its roots are also long and tendril-like, and its seeds bear a distinctive horned shape, hence the common name. The species epithet palustris is Latin for "of the marsh" and indicates its common habitat. A diploid, its chromosome number was confirmed as 2n = 24.

horned pondweed
Horned pondweed, scientifically known as Zannichellia palustris, is a submersed macrophyte or aquatic plant that grows in a variety of water bodies including lakes, ponds, rivers, and even ditches. This plant has grass-like, thread-like leaves with small horn-shaped fronds at the leaf nodes, which is how it got its name. Despite its appearance, it is actually part of the pondweed family. It has a high tolerance for salinity and temperature variations, thus it is found in both freshwater and brackish environments.
