Surajit sir, Now that I am going through the 0101 photo, I can spot various other spots where there are terminal umbels. It would put the characters as intermediate between the two species given in this <https://books.google.co.in/books?id=umMFT6tKtrkC&pg=PA307&lpg=PA307&dq=sarcostemma+intermedium&source=bl&ots=1BLI-_SD9-&sig=GieblcJyn2aQ8XOusDrPppse3HM&hl=en&sa=X&ei=wKhHVdvnDsbEmAXa5oDQAw&ved=0CC0Q6AEwBTgU#v=onepage&q=sarcostemma%20intermedium&f=false>. This is a little perplexing for me. Agreed that *S. intermedium *may very well not be it. Also, I feel that .5 mm style could not be called elongated and thus may not be applicable to this plant according to the description of *Cynanchum sarcomedium* in the paper!
I feel we should leave this here as- more points in favour of *S. viminale *and lesser in favour of the other species (mainly *S. intermedium*). In case I should find this plant again elsewhere or another species, I will make sure to record a lot more details. What do you think sir? On Wed, May 13, 2015 at 4:45 PM, J.M.
