#12 They called me Najas marina, also known as Najas marina var. ohwii, Najas marina var. riedelii, and Najas marina subsp. ehrenbergii. I pay homage to the male botanists Ohw (I couldn’t find his records), Riedel (I couldn’t find his records), and Christian Gottfried Ehrenberg. They first catalogued me in 1753.
