Earlier at https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/HUoQO2C7JHQ/ _X1xUFdcT18J, one of my uploads has got the ID of *Kyllinga nemoralis*. The plant posted here looks a bit different in context of the inflorescence - please therefore validate the ID in this post. In the northern Konkan and Western Ghats of Maharashtra, we have at least following species of *Kyllinga* reported: 1. *K. brevifolia* 2. *K. bulbosa* 3. *K. nemoralis* 4. *K. melanosperma* 5. *K. squamulata* Reference (PDF) : The Gazetteer Department (Govt. of Maharashtra) - महाराष्ट्रातील वनस्पतीशास्त्र आणि वनसंपदा<http://cultural.maharashtra.gov.in/english/gazetteer/Vansampada/PDF/271-546.pdf> Very eager to see uploads of various species of *Kyllinga*.

Thank you, Regards, surajit Many thanks Surajit ji. I am hoping many of us share their sightings of various species of *Kyllinga*. The pictures at the links are good; but familiarity with grasses and sedges is absolutely low - not yet able to grasp the differences. Regards. Dinesh "we are in the same boat brother..." Good morning Dinesh Ji. This might help :- http://flora.huh.harvard.edu/china/PDF/PDF23/Kyllinga.pdf According to Flora of British India, *K. cylindrica* Nees is scattered widely in India, not plentiful anywhere. I am thinking if your species https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/indiantreepix/HUoQO2C7JHQ/_X1xUFdcT18Jcan be the same.
