This is another tropical species 

 largely confined in our territory to 

 the southern coasts of Florida. It oc- 

 curs ,in shallow, quiet, often stagnant 

 water, frequently in company with 

 Syringodium and Thalassia. Its nar- 

 row flat leaves are distinctively trun- 

 cate and toothed at the apex, as 

 shown in the small inset figure.
