Different plant

was wandering the local creeks the other day and found a plant I havent seen before and im trying to ID. it kinda looks like a cross between a ludwigia and a starplant (Heteranthera zosteraefolia) its growing in a permanent creek in medium/low light, and is the dominant plant in the creek, I'll go back and get a couple of photo's hopefully this week. I have not been able to find anything that looks like it on both the FNZAS or the Niwa databses, except the Heteranthera zosteraefolia picture in the FNZAS database but with much shorter leaves and alternating leaves (not arranged in a whorl)

bad photos I know, but best I got when i first collected it. also interesting to note is that the green patch in the second photo is as emerged as it ever got in that spot, just a green bulge. had better ones but didn't realise how blurred they were til i got home.
