Cabombaceae in Flora of North America @ efloras.org
Cabombaceae are pollinated by insects (Cabomba) or by wind (Brasenia).
Formerly Cabombaceae often have been included in Nymphaeaceae in the broad sense.

Brasenia, commonly known as the Water Shield, is a monotypic genus sporadically distributed in freshwater ponds and lakes throughout temperate and tropical regions of the Americas, Asia, Australia, and Africa.
Brasenia is one of eight genera that comprise the two families of Nymphaeales, or water lilies: Cabombaceae (Brasenia, Cabomba) and Nymphaeaceae (Victoria, Euryale, Nymphaea, Ondinea, Barclaya, Nuphar).
Currently, evidence from a broad range of phylogenetic studies indicates that the Nymphaeales are among the most primitive flowering plants and that Amborella or Amborella plus Nymphaeales is the sister group to the remaining angiosperms.

The Cabombaceae is an aquatic plant family that, in China, is represented by two genera each with one species.
In this chapter there is description of the family, a key to the two genera followed by a description of each genus and the species that is known to occur in China.
Technical Abstract: The Cabombaceae of China are represented by the genus Cabomba Aublet including one species, C. caroliniana A. Gray, and Brasenia Schreber including one species, B. schreberi J.F. Gmelin.

Most molecular phylogenies suggest that there are two well supported clades in the Nymphaeales: the Cabombaceae clade and the Nymphaeaceae - Barclayaceae clade.
The affinities to the nymphaeoids is based on the peltate attachment, leaf shape, leaf architectural characters, and the apparent aquatic nature of the leaves and stems.
The shape of the leaf and the aquatic shoots, as opposed to rhizomes, are restricted to the Cabombaceae clade.

 Journal of the Torrey Botanical Society: root cortex of the nymphaeaceae, cabombaceae, and nelumbonaceae1, The
In mature roots, the endodermis cell wall of the Nymphaeaceae, with two minor exceptions where there are faint suberin lamellae in old roots, is made only of Casparian bands, whereas in the Cabombaceae, even with smaller roots, the endodermis has Casparian bands and suberin lamellae.
The Nymphaeaceae are characterized by having many SRH cells of the hexagonal aerenchyma modified into astrosclereids (termed idioblasts by Conard, 1905; see Seago et al., 2000b) and by transverse diaphragms (Conard, 1905; Seago et al., 2000b).
The hypodermis of the Nymphaeaceae and the Cabombaceae has a uniseriate exodermis of Casparian bands and suberin lamellae; in the Nymphaeaceae, the exodermis in N. odorata may have secondary cellulose walls in mature roots (Seago et al., 2000b).

Osborn, Jeffrey M. Schwartz, Julie A. [1], Gutman, Benjamin L. [1], Melrose, Natalie A. Pollen and anther development in Cabomba (Cabombaceae, Nymphaeales).
The Nymphaeales, or water lilies, have a cosmopolitan distribution in fresh water habitats and comprise two families and eight genera: Nymphaeaceae (Victoria, Euryale, Nymphaea, Ondinea, Barclaya, Nuphar) and Cabombaceae (Cabomba, Brasenia).
Water lilies are widely regarded to be among the most primitive flowering plants, as recent phylogenetic studies have consistently indicated that either Amborella or Amborella plus Nymphaeales is the sister group to the remaining angiosperms.

Pollen and Anther Ontogeny in Brasenia (Cabombaceae, Nymphaeales)
Brasenia schreberi, commonly known as the Water Shield, is a water lily sporadically distributed throughout temperate and tropical regions of the Americas, Asia, Australia, and Africa.
Several characters appear to be correlated with wind-pollination and the adaptive significance of these characters, in contrast to those of Cabomba, the fly-pollinated second genus within Cabombaceae, will be discussed.
