Eichhornia crassipes
Vegetation consists mainly of floating beds of Water Hyacinth ("Eichhornia crassipes"), submergent beds of Waterweed ("Elodea canadensis"), and marshy areas with Spikerushes ("Eleocharis elegans") and Giant Bulrush ("Scirpus californicus"). The lake shores have some wooded areas with "Casuarina" species, "Cupressus lusitanica", "Inga xalapensis" and "Pinus" species. The surrounding area has coffee plantations.
