''Berula'' is a cosmopolitan genus of flowering plant in the carrot family, whose species are known as water parsnip,〔(Calflora taxon report, University of California: ''Berula erecta'' )〕 as are some other plants in Apiaceae such as ''Sium latifolium'' and ''Sium suave''. It is easily confused with the highly toxic water hemlock. Water parsnip is a widespread aquatic plant found across Eurasia, Africa, North America, and elsewhere. It is a perennial plant forming stolons at the base where it roots in mud, often underwater. It extends hollow stems and umbels of white flowers. The leaves are fernlike and have several narrow to rounded leaflets. ==Taxonomy== , The Plant List accepts five species: *''Berula bracteata'' (Roxb.) Spalik & S.R.Downie *''Berula burchellii'' (Hook.f.) Spalik & S.R.Downie *''Berula erecta'' (Huds.) Coville *''Berula imbricata'' (Schinz) Spalik & S.R.Downie *''Berula repanda'' (Welw. ex Hiern) Spalik & S.R.Downie 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Berula」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
