Yes Alka Ji, it is exceedingly similar to the photographs of *L. inaequalis* in taibif.tw website. Is it new in our country? I would have loved, but I find no ref. Can you please check that petioles are not exceeding 1.5 cm? Else pic 4 bears leaves similar to KEW herb K000950070. But, surely it looks very very similar to the Taiwan website.
