Eichhornia , commonly called water hyacinths , was a polyphyletic genus of the aquatic flowering plants family Pontederiaceae . Since it was consistently recovered in three independent lineages, it has been sunk into Pontederia , together with Monochoria . Each of the three lineages is currently recognized as subgenera in Pontederia :
Pontederia subg. Eichhornia is pantropical, centered in South America but with P. natans being endemic to continental Africa and Madagascar . The other three species are restricted to the Neotropics .
It was named in honour of Friedrich Eichhorn [de ] , an early-19th-century Prussian minister of education.[2]
Description [ edit ]
Its species are perennial aquatic plants (or hydrophytes) with prostrate and densely branched stems. The inflorescences can have one to 30 conspicuously attractive flowers , mostly lavender to pink in colour, rarely white.
