Comments

For Nuphar polysepala there are Watershed observations from only a few locations in Conejos Co: a natural pond near Cumbres Pass (1902, 2016, 2022); Flower Lake (1945); Kerr Lake (1987); Lily Pond near Platoro (2013; 2022, iNaturalist observation 124784268), etc. BONAP (2022) shows Costilla Co, with no vouchers in SEINet. Except for a few locations in Rio Arriba Co, New Mexico, the Watershed occurrences would be the only ones in the Rio Grande drainage. The USA distribution includes the west coast mountains and the Rocky Mountains from the Canadian border on south.
