  • Jenny Greenteeth, även kallad Jinny Greenteeth och Ginny Greenteeth, är en figur i den engelska folktron. Hon är en sjöhäxa som skulle dra ner barn eller gamla i vattnet och dränka dem. Hon beskrivs som en grönhudad varelse med långt hår och vassa tänder. Enligt vissa folklorister är det troligt att hon hittades på för att skrämma barn från farliga vattendrag. Jämför med Näcken, Rusalka i den slavisk mytologin, Kappa i Japansk mytologi och den australiska Bunyip. Det finns andra folklorister som ser henne som ett minne från offerritualer. Namnet används även för att beskriva flytade växter som kan bilda en matta på ytan av mindre, stillastående vattendrag och som gör dem förledande och farliga, särskilt för barn. Denna användning av namnet är vanlig runt Liverpool och i sydvästra Lancashire.

She was often described as green-skinned, with long, black hair and sharp teeth. She is likely to have been an invention to frighten children from dangerous waters but, other folklorists have seen her as a memory of sacrificial practices. The name is also used to describe pondweed or duckweed, which can form a continuous mat over the surface of a small body of water, making it misleading and potentially treacherous, especially to unwary children. With this meaning, the name is common around Liverpool and south west Lancashire.
