This map is based on our research. We have checked its accuracy to Level 3 ecoregions. Although this plant occurs somewhere in each of these regions, it may only occur in a small part of some or all of them.
Our map on this species may be incomplete; VASCAN reports this species as native to Saskatchewan, but we were unable to locate any specific records in that province. Our map's ecoregions intersecting that province reflect records in other provinces. This species is small and inconspicuous, and it has a widespread, scattered distribution, so it may be underreported.

FNA reports that this species may hybridize with the more southerly small bur-reed (Sparganium natans) where their ranges overlap, but that this proposed hybridization has not been verified.
