Hydrocotyle Linnaeus. Water-pennywort.
A genus of about 180 species, perennial and annual herbs, cosmopolitan (especially Australia) (Plunkett et al. 2018b). Molecular analyses have clarified that the affinities of Hydrocotyle lie with the Araliaceae rather than the Apiaceae (Downie et al. 1998; Chandler & Plunkett 2004).
