I have also struggled with the classification of hornworts. Just make
sure you don't have eurasian water milfoil. Thats the nasty stuff. It usually
has 5+pairs of leaflets, which are limp when out of the water. While the
common northern milfoil usually has less than 7 leaflets, which maintain
their shape when out of water. Sorry, thats all I know, hope it was of some
help. __Dan Good luck
