Narrative
Full name as recorded at U.S. National Arboretum: Carya aquatica. From open-pollinated seeds of NA 76644-001, -005, and/or -006 growing at the Woody Landscape Plant Germplasm Repository at South Farm in College Park, Maryland that were collected in October 2019. These are considered "essentially derived" from NA 76644 because there are no other plants of the species there, although hybridization with other Carya is not entirely out of the question. From the record of the sexual parent of this material, NA 76644: Seed coll. in FL, Gadsden Co., Chattahoochee, along Apalachicola River, below Jim Woodruff Dam. Coll. Sept. 2004 by Ron Lance. Three individuals growing at South Farm [76644-001, -005, and -006] have been noted for their excellent fall color. See NA 87373 for open-pollinated seedlings of these plants from seeds that were collected and sown in 2019.

Sketch bot. S. Carolina 2:627. 1824 (T. Nuttall, Gen. N. Amer. pl. 2:222. 1818, nom. nudum)
Comment:
Nuttall listed only the epithet, and although he cited "Juglans species, L. Willd." under his genus Carya, this cannot be taken as an indirect reference to J. aquatica F. Michx. that was published after Willdenow
