This is a list of plants that grow in wetland environments, including aquatic plants and plants that live in the ecotones between terrestrial and aquatic environments.
Major cosmopolitan groups
These are groups with members found in wetland environments throughout the world.
Ceratophyllum demersum is a cosmopolitan species of aquatic plant.
Drosera, the sundews, are carnivorous plants with species found on every continent except Antarctica.
Duckweeds are tiny flowering plants that float on the surface of water, with members of the group found worldwide.
Isoetes is a cosmopolitan genus of lycophyte known as the quillworts.
Juncus is a genus of monocot commonly known as rushes, found in every continent except Antarctica.
Juncus effusus
Mangroves are trees or shrubs that grow in salt or brackish water along coastlines. The group consists of numerous unrelated plants that have convergently evolved. Sometimes, the widely distributed genus Rhizophora is referred to as the true mangroves.
Pistia, a genus with one species that is native to tropical environments and has further extended its range as an introduced species.
Phragmites is a genus of plants known as reeds.
Pondweeds are a family of aquatic plant with a subcosmopolitan distribution.
Sagittaria is a genus of plants known as arrowhead or katniss.
Salix, the willows, are native to many areas throughout the world, usually in riparian ecosystems.
Salvinia natans, the floating fern, is native in Africa, Asia, Europe, South America, and introduced elsewhere.
Sedges are a large family of grass-like plants with many species that form a characteristic part of wetland vegetation.
Bolboschoenus, club rushes.
Carex, the true sedges, contains over 2,000 species, primarily found in wetland environments.
Eleocharis, the spikerushes.
Scirpus, bulrushes.
Sphagnum is a genus of moss that is found primarily in the Northern Hemisphere, as well as in some areas of South America, New Zealand and Tasmania. Sphagnum moss is notable because it forms peat.
Sporobolus, cordgrasses.
Typha, known as cattails or bulrushes, are found throughout the world and a characteristic plant of wetland environments.
Utricularia, known as the bladderworts, are carnivorous plants with species found worldwide.
Water lilies are aquatic flowering plants with leaves that float on the surface of bodies of water.
