Dear All
Thanks for letting me know. This name was supplied to me some years back. I
had assumed they had expertise, so neverchecked further. I am not a specialist
in the genus Clematis but will check further incl. with the person who provided
the name.
Yes, the plant photographed does not match the images of Clematis ranunculoides
you provided links to.
A lesson to all - always double-check IF you can!
Best Wishes,

My first offering on Nepal. I am not as familiar with its flora as Ladakh or
the NW Himalaya and as with the whole of the Himalayan foothills, the lower the
elevation one goes, especially into sub-tropical and tropical plants, my
knowledge rapidly diminishes! Nevertheless, I have visited Nepal on a number
of occasions and know something of its flora. This Clematis is certainly not
C.buchananiana. I think you will find this is Clematis acutangula - it is not
recorded in 'An Enumeration of the Flowering Plants of Nepal' Vol 2, 1979) nor
'Flora of Kathmandu Valley' (1986). Hooker knew the plant as is in FBI - from
Khasia Hills (now Meghalaya). Do not know of any images on internet. The
pressed specimens in Kew herbarium will not help much.
If circumstances permit, I shall contribute more about Nepalese flora.

Dear Members,
Sharing some pictures for ID shot at the Chandtagiri Hill Kathmandu on 19
September 2016 at 8200 ft.
Could it be Clematis buchananiana DC. ??
If so why color of flower is different?
Thank you.
