notes:J. supinus, Moench form. Betty Hill Sutherland, Aug 1888, growing in two feet depth of water, and varying in consequence, as it seems commonly to do in such situations.- W F Linton. "Near to var. uliginosus, Roth. But Buchenau does not admit any variety excepting our var. Kochii, Bab, the varying states which this species assumes, in common with, but to a greater extent than, several of the other species, being apparently induced by local circumstances, and not varieties properly speaking." - W H Beeby.
