Thank you very much Rawat Sir. I admit I was wrong guessing probability of *R. ciliatiflora* Hook. My guess was based on b/w illustration of plantillustrations.org <http://www.plantillustrations.org/illustration.php?id_illustration=273431&mobile=0&code_category_taxon=> and a herbarium <http://fm1.fieldmuseum.org/vrrc/index.php?language=br&page=view&id=507&PHPSESSID=eb41406e239e7b807176373ff7&PHPSESSID=eb41406e239e7b807176373ff7>; where flowers are in leafless panicle.
But this species can not be *R. prostrata* Poir. either; where flowers are solitary axillary and most importantly subtended by leaf like about 1 cm bracteoles. If you have different version of description of *R. prostrata* Poir. please share. Similarly, probability of other species like *beddomei*, *cernua* etc can be skipped. In that case this species would be something other than *Ruellia*. I am really sorry for making this thread resurface without taking proper precautions. I reiterate this is species is not *Ruellia prostrata* Poir. unless there is entirely new version of the species documentation.
