- NEED IN SITU PHOTOS. Potamogeton pusillus has five locations in the Watershed: banks of Rio Grande near Alamosa (1896); San Luis Lakes (1991); Ruybalid lake, west of Mogotes (1988); Zapata ranch, south of the Great Sand Dunes (1991); Humphrey’s ranch south of Creede (2013). This world-wide pondweed has locations scattered through every state of the USA. It is present in the Rio Grande drainage through New Mexico and Texas down to the Gulf of Mexico. In the Watershed, as with many pondweeds, it is probably under-collected.
