Amphibious. Leaves dimorphic in aquatic plants; lower leaves linear, 6–30 mm long, 0.5–1 mm wide, 1-veined, deeply notched at apex; upper leaves spathulate to ovate-rhombic, 3–5 mm long, 1–1.7 mm wide, slightly emarginate, 3-veined, petiolate, rosetted; leaves of terrestrial plants linear-elliptic to elliptic, 1–3-veined. Flowers solitary in axils; bracteoles usually absent; stamen 0.6–1 mm long, shorter than fruit; styles deflexed close to fruit, 1.2–2 mm long, deciduous. Fruit mostly sessile (sometimes with pedicel to c. 15 mm long in lower axils), more or less circular, 1–1.2 mm long and wide, sometimes slightly longer than wide, dark brown to greyish; wing narrow, pale.
