Utricularia L.
Bladderwort is a unique underwater plant that catches tiny insects and small aquatic creatures in its bladders. It has no roots and floats freely in water, using its bladders as traps for food.
生息地: Aquatic
The Bladderwort is a rootless plant, often submerged or floating, with delicate green stems and finely divided leaves. Its small, often bright yellow or purple flowers emerge on slender stalks above the water, while tiny, balloon-like bladders dot its submerged parts.

Bladderwort traps are among the most complex mechanical structures found in the plant kingdom.
Scientists once thought bladderworts were just simple algae because of their rootless, basic form.
Some bladderwort species can live entirely on land, thriving in wet, boggy soils!
Tiny air bubbles inside bladderwort traps help keep the plant buoyant and floating in water.
Bladderwort can quickly suck in tiny prey like water fleas using specialized bladders, making it a lightning-fast hunter.
Bladderwort has no true roots, allowing many species to drift freely in water or colonize very wet, boggy soils.
