Abstract
Aquatic fl owering plants form a relatively young plant group
on an evolutionary timescale. The group has developed over
the past 80 million years from terrestrial fl owering plants that
re-colonised the aquatic environment after 60-100 million
years on land. The exchange of species between terrestrial
and aquatic environments continues today and is very intensive
along stream banks. In this chapter we describe the physical
and chemical barriers to the exchange of plants between
land and water.
