Derivation of the botanical name:
Alisma, αλισμα, name for a water plant used by Dioscorides, and adopted by Carolus Linnaeus. Perhaps itself derived from the Celtic, alias, "water".
lanceolatum, lancea, "lance, spear", atus,"with, shaped, made"; meaning lance shaped.
- The standard author abbreviation With. is used to indicate William Withering (1741 – 1799), an English botanist, geologist, chemist, physician and the discoverer of digitalis.
