Bird dispersal of aquatic Utricularia is probably more common than we think.

This is especially true in a north/south pattern due to birds migratory
routes.

It is also the only explanation for the recent occurence of U. geminiscapa
(eastern USA and Canada) in New Zealand

For more info read my book.
