Aquatic plants are the dominant plant group in the water bodies of the alluvial plain of the Middle Paraná River. The communities formed by these plants are considered some of the most productive on the planet and fulfil important ecological functions in the wetlands of the region.
This book summarises information on 123 plant species recorded in various environments of its alluvial plain. It includes photos and illustrations and presents a brief description of each species and information on the environments they inhabit, their main uses and other information of interest.
The book was organised to facilitate the identification of the species in the field, and can be useful for both specialists and students, for all those interested in this fascinating group of plants.
