|discussion=<p>Seven varieties of <i>Sagittaria graminea</i> have been recognized, i.e., <i></i>var.<i> graminea</i>, var. platyphylla Engelmann, var. teres (S. Watson) Bogin, var. weatherbiana Fernald, var. cristata (Engelmann) Bogin, <i></i>var.<i> chapmanii</i> J. G. Smith, and var. macrocarpa (J. G. Smith) Bogin (C. Bogin 1955). We accept only one infraspecific rank, i.e., subspecies. Consequently, we have made the appropriate combinations. We accept all of the taxa accepted by Bogin at the varietal level. At specific level we accept Bogin’s var. platyphylla, var. teres, and var. cristata and at subspecific level his <i></i>var.<i> graminea</i>, <i></i>var.<i> chapmanii</i>, and var. weatherbiana.</p><!--
--><p><i>Sagittaria graminea</i> var. macrocarpa actually is synonymous with <i></i>var.<i> graminea</i> (E. O. Beal 1960b). We therefore are following Beal in recognizing var. macrocarpa sensu Bogin as <i>S. fasciculata</i>. We also accept var. platyphylla, var. teres, and var. cristata at the specific level, leaving only three subspecies. These subspecies can be separated by the branching of the inflorescence and the length of pistillate pedicels.</p><!--
