Best Answer

Some plants that are similar to common Duckweed, Lemna minor, all in the Lemnaceae family, are:

Water meal, (Wolffia spp.);

Mud midget, (Wolffiella gladiata Hegelm);

Giant Duckweed, (Spirodela polyrrhiza).

Species in the Lemnaceae family are similar in that they all are: very small, fresh water aquatic plants, float unattached and self contained, propagate easily, and have high nutritional value.
