European Frog-Bit is a free-floating, herbaceous, aquatic plant that resembles a miniature water lily. It has been found in the Great Lakes since the 1930s but is now spreading inland into streams and lakes within the basin. The dense floating mats formed by European Frog-Bit restrict available sunlight and nutrients, displace native plant species, reduce biodiversity, and impact water flow.
