Garg Sir,, Earlier the question was addressed by Dinsh Ji also and in that thread he referred a checklist (by Sunita Garg) <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/2vbU168LwTw/MlZtLX_xaiQJ>. But neither the thread nor the eFI page provides me key to differentiate between *pulcehllum* and * meyeri*. FoP says *meyeri* has white flowers <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=200017845> but eFI and FoI has pink flowers.
However, as per Presidency University website <http://bioinfo-presiuniv.edu.in/wbpbdivdb_genera_dicotyledon.php> and an ENVIS <http://envis.frlht.org/checklist/WestBengal.pdf> document (two entries of *Centaurium*) we have only *Centaurium centaurioides* (Roxb.) S.R.Rao & Hemadri. Thank you Regards surajit koley a *non-botanist* member of efloraofIndia google group On Thu, Jul 2, 2015 at 1:49 PM, J.M.
