|discussion=<p>Of conservation concern.</p><!--
--><p><i>Nuphar sagittifolia</i> is probably best treated as a subspecies. Plants intermediate between it and <i>N. advena</i> are treated under <i>N. advena</i>. The clinal variation pattern between the two taxa is apparently maintained via selection by vernalization (C. E. DePoe and E. O. Beal 1969; E. O. Beal and R. M. Southall 1977).</p><!--
--><p>This taxon is the Cape Fear spatterdock of the aquarium trade.</p>
