Sagittaria teres, also known as the quill-leaved arrowhead or slender arrowhead, is a species of aquatic plant found in the northeastern United States. It is native to states such as Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, and New Jersey. This plant can be found growing along the shores of lakes, marshes, and other wetlands, particularly those with acidic water. It is a perennial herb that can reach heights of up to 80 cm (32 inches) and has leaves that can grow both above and below the water's surface. The flowers of Sagittaria teres are white and can reach up to 1.5 cm (0.6 inches) in diameter, growing in clusters on a stalk above the leaves. This species is considered endangered in Connecticut, New Jersey, New York, and Rhode Island, and is listed as a special concern in Massachusetts.
