photo shows two species: Vallisneria australis (submerged, strappy leaves) and an Azolla (probably A. rubra) ( a floating fern).

Any chance of adding a photo that clearly shows the fruiting head ? There are some in the second photo, but not clear enough to show the shape of the beak (little projection of each achene).

Ranunculus inundatus
