Dear All This is very interesting. While it agrees with the salient features of J. maheshwarii, there are significant differences like lobation of leaves and non-peltate or slightly peltate leaf-bases. This needs to be studied in detail in its entire range natural habitats. Perhaps, J. maheshwarii shows much variation in the leaf morphology, as seen in J. nana. I cannot give a definite opinion. The plants shown in the earlier message is the typical J. maheshwarii, which was published in Bull. Bot. Surv. India 6: 331, ff. 1 - 8. 1964. In fact, I prepared the illustration for the authors in the protologue, when I was working at BSI,Southern Circle. I still remember the plant. The plant needs further detailed studies. Per N. P.
