The species is fully submerged. The hybrid was described in 1983 in Chiba Pref. Japan as an interspecific hybrid between P. lucens and P. malaianus (syn. P. wrightii),[1] and then genetically confirmed the hybridity as well as parental combinations.[2][3] This hybrid is also found in China.[4]
It is known to be a sterile hybrid.[1]
