Typha latifolia
The most widespread species is "Typha latifolia", which is distributed across the entire temperate northern hemisphere. It has also been introduced to Australia. "T. angustifolia" is nearly as widespread, but does not extend as far north; it may be introduced and invasive in North America. "T. domingensis" has a more southern American distribution, and it occurs in Australia. "T. orientalis" is widespread in Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. "T. laxmannii", "T. minima", and "T. shuttleworthii" are largely restricted to Asia and southern Europe.
