Thanks Rawat ji for further eloboration. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: D.S Rawat <[email protected]> Date: 28 April 2014 17:15 Subject: Re: Alternanthera paronychioides A. St.-Hil. = Alternanthera ficoidea (L.) P. Beauv. as per GRIN To: "J.M. Garg" <[email protected]>
Garg Ji Yes, Karthikeyan et al.(2009) does not mention *A. paronychioides* A. St.-Hil. as they consider it a synonym of *A. polygonoides* R.Br. ex Sweet, which itself is mentioned as synonym of *A. sessilis* (L.) R.Br. ex DC. by The Plant List. Thus *A. paronychioides* A. St.-Hil. and *A. polygonoides*R.Br. ex Sweet becomes synonyms of *A. sessilis* (L.) R.Br. ex DC. But again Plant List considers *A.paronychioides* A. St.-Hil. as a distinct species with a specimen in Herbarium catalogue of Kew: ( http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/getImage.do?imageBarcode=K000583029) which resembles to a species growing in India and identified as A. paronychioides A. St.-Hil. (particularly in Uttarakhand). I feel that *A. paronychioides* A. St.-Hil. and *A. ficoidea* (L.) Sm. are two different species. However, G. Singh Sir may have a better idea of it.
