Nymphaea glandulifera is a tropical waterlily species native to America. It produces ovoid tubers and has two sets of air channels in its petiole. The flowers have a green peduncle with air channels and open at dusk. This species reproduces only through sexual reproduction and is known to attract Cyclocephala castanea beetles. It is typically found in seasonally inundated savannas or small pools near streams. The type specimen was collected in Guyana and it is classified within Nymphaea subgen. Hydrocallis. The specific epithet, glandulifera, refers to its gland-bearing characteristics. Nymphaea glandulifera is suitable for cultivation in small aquariums.
