AARGH!!....

"common pond weed"!... "the most common Utric"!!...

Here in Italy we are desperately looking for it, but it seems there is no
chance of finding it alive.
All its old habitats have been bonificated or are eutrophicated and it is
probably extinct.

Happy to here the situation is not so bad everywhere!
