Ceratopteris cornuta, commonly known as the water sprite, is an aquatic fern from the family Parkeriaceae. Native to tropical and subtropical regions, this plant thrives in shallow freshwater habitats such as ponds, swamps, and marshes.

Water sprite is characterized by its unique, finely divided, and feathery fronds that can reach several feet in length. The bright green leaves create a vibrant contrast against the water surface. A distinctive feature of the water sprite is its ability to reproduce both vegetatively and sexually, with sporangia often found on the undersides of the leaves.

This fern is popular in aquariums and water gardens due to its aesthetic appeal and plays a vital role in the aquatic ecosystem by providing shelter and habitat for various aquatic organisms. Additionally, it helps improve water quality by absorbing excess nutrients. The water sprite's adaptability allows it to thrive in a range of environmental conditions, making it a resilient species in its native habitats.
