---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Gurcharan Singh <[email protected]> Date: 2 July 2014 21:46 Subject: [efloraofindia:192781] Campanulaceae and Gentianaceae Fortnight: The problems of Gentiana carinata. To: efloraofindia <[email protected]> Dear Colleagues Going by records in the books and net Gentiana carinata seems to be one of the commonest species in Himalayas, abundant on Gulmarg meadow of Kashmir, but going by my upload of G. hugelii (supported by specimens quoted by S. Omer of Pakistan, who seems to have done lot of genus changes. He does not quote single specimen from Gulmarg or Khillenmarg for G. carinata (his Qaisera carinata)), The identity and distribution seems doubtful in my mind. The photograph of G. carinata in Flowers of Himalaya, Flowers of India and two net links I have cited earlier and am repeating here: http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Dark%20Blue%20Gentian.html http://www.gentians.be/index.php?page=plant_portraits&pic=78 http://www.alpines.be/central-nepal/#!modal-window[gallery]/21/ In all these photographs I don't detect any trace of fimbriae, a supposedly distinctive character of the species. May be we get more convincing photographs of the species.
