Aldrovanda vesiculosa L. (Droseraceae) is a very rare and critically endangered aquatic carnivorous plant with snapping traps exhibiting rapid movement. It is rootless, free-floating just below the water surface in shallow, standing dystrophic (humic) waters. Although it covers a vast territory including all continents of the Old World and across various climatic zones, recent work determining its natural spread indicated only around 50 sites worldwide. The aim of the present paper is to review all biological properties of Aldrovanda with an emphasis on temperate European populations.
