I think the identification is correct. However, Pachystylidium hirsutum has not been recorded from Eastern Himalayas. So far it is known from Odisha, Andhra Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. Hence it may be a new record for Arunachal Pradesh. But survey of literature is needed to find out if anybody recorded it from Arunachal Pradesh. If Dr Ritesh Choudhury can locate the plant again in its natural habitat, he may kindly prepare herbarium specimens and donate to BSI herbaria at Itanagar, Shillong and Central National Herbarium at Howrah, it would be very useful.
