pondweed (Potamogeton spp.; PONDWEED FAMILY [Potamogetonaceae])  Numerous species and hybrids of perennial aquatic plants.  Found in most bodies of water throughout the state.  All have alternate, entire leaves.  Floating leaves are distinct from submersed leaves in many species.  Small, inconspicuous flowers in short spikes held above the water surface (most species) or in small clusters in the axils of submersed leaves.  [122]
