C.P. 270; SVK I 251 FL Lake just beyond la Grangette.
Stigma rays yellow and ovary provided with stamens
to close under the stigma disk. This and distribution
acc to SVK point to N alba. But inner filaments are at least
as wide as anthers and if as it lies in the water, has
its sinuses merely a slit with edges of lobs ± tend-
ing (but not "ubereinander geschlagen" - as if
dries in collecting box the edges are divergent.) In
water, leaf differs from Nuphar luteum in being
almost circular v having basal lobes 2X1 (in N. l.
rounded)
