Resource for Bladderwort ID?

[NJChileHead]

Hi Folks, I was wondering if anyone knew of a resource that they could refer me to for a complete list of NJ's (not general North American) bladderworts? I'm looking to improve my ID skills for them and found myself stumped many times in the past. I wanted to refrain from buying another book/field guide so if there are any pdfs or online resources they would be preferred. Thanks for any help!

I have not found that even the broad-area technical manuals are truly useful (though I have not found any in NJ that I could not identify based upon them). What is sorely needed is a treatment having multiple close up photos of the corolla. I don't know of any like that for New Jersey. Let me know if you find one.

Good to see the bladderwort gettin' some love. Usually those darn sundews and pitcher plants get all the carnivorous love. Unless in flower I don't even attempt an i.d.

Hug a bladderwort summer. Sounds good to me.

Thanks for the help so far. 46er, that's a great resource, thank you for sharing. According to the article posted and other resources, there are between 12 and 15 bladderwort species in NJ. I'm going to list the ones that I can confirm from Boyd's book "The Ecological Pine Barrens of New Jersey" as well as several other sources, however I can only come up with 10. I'd like to try to get a complete list and then take it from there. Can anyone help by confirming, refuting, or adding to this list?

Horned bladderwort (Utricularia cornuta)
Humped bladderwort (U. gibba)
Swollen bladderwort (U. inflata)
Flat-leaved bladderwort (U. intermedia)
Southern bladderwort (U. juncea)
White-flowered bladderwort (U. olivacea)
Purple bladderwort (U. purpurea)
Reclined bladderwort (U. resupinata)
Zigzag bladderwort (U. subulata)
Striped bladderwort (U. striata aka fibrosa)

I'm also interested in finding out if U. foliosa, U. macrorhiza, and U. radiata are native to here, I couldn't find anything confirming it.

You are missing U. geminiscapa, U. biflora, U. minor, and U. radiata has been documented in New Jersey. Not sure if it's native.

Karl Anderson's Check list of the ants of NJ 2012 has U. macrorhiza synonymous with U. vulgaris which is listed as native in Mary Hough's, New Jersey Wild Plants. She also has U. radiata = U. inflata var. minor as native. USDA shows U.foliosa no farther north than NC although some people are finding plants that aren't supposed to be in NJ! If you find U. olivacea please let me know.
