The aim of this work was to report the presence of N. marina in an urban lake in the city of San Miguel de Tucumán (Tucumán, Argentina), being the first record of the genus in northwestern Argentina. Previous reports of N. marina in Argentina included the provinces of Corrientes, Mendoza, Misiones, San Luis and Santa Fe. Specimens collected in the northeast of the country (provinces of Corrientes and Santa Fe) previously cited as N. marina correspond to Najas major, characterized by having unarmed stems and leaves. Najas es un género cosmopolita perteneciente a la familia Hydrocharitaceae; Najas marina es una especie herbácea acuática sumergida, con tallos y hojas armados con aguijones, que vive en aguas dulces o salobres de lagos poco profundos. El objetivo de este trabajo fue reportar la presencia de N. marina en un lago urbano de la ciudad de San Miguel de Tucumán (Tucumán, Argentina), siendo el primer registro del género en el noroeste argentino. Reportes previos de N. marina en Argentina incluyeron las provincias de Corrientes, Mendoza, Misiones, San Luis y Santa Fe. Los especímenes colectados en el noreste del país (provincias de Corrientes y Santa Fe) previamente citados como N. marina corresponden a Najas major, caracterizada por tener tallos y hojas sin aguijones.
