I think it's Rotala sp Goias.

Goias is a location in Brazil --most new plants nowadays are coming from Brazil including Polygonums, fine leaved Ludwigias, Rotalas, Bacopas, Hygrophilas, Toninas, etc.

Which plants would you like identified? Most of them have been identified by genus name with the name of the location of where it was originally collected.

Examples:
Ludwigia sp Pantanal
Rotala sp Goias
Rotala sp Araguaia
Tonina sp Belem

etc.

Most of them are from Brazil,

Hi Paul! Welcome to APC!

Most of these new plants were originally collected by a Japanese company called Rayon Vert. I'm just offering to help out, since I did a lot of research on these recently discovered (for aquarium use) aquaplants when I was an avid plant collector. Their needs are not too different from a lot of stem plants we have here.
