Two images taken by Krishan Lal at Nahan c. 800m, H.P. -which he considered to
be Campanula benthamii.
Neither Flowers of the Himalaya nor its Supplement cover this species.Neither
does 'Flora Simlensis' or 'Flora Lahaul-Spiti'.
Stewart records this (C.canescens as a synonym) in Kashmir @ 550-2700m.
Enumeration of the Flowering Plants of Nepal gives a distribution of
Afghanistan toBhutan, India, Sri Lanka and Myanamar. West & Central Nepal @
300-1100m.
I wonder if it is known in Uttarakhand?
I have a copy of the printed Campanulaceae for Pakistan (E.Nasir, 1984) which
coversthis species. He describes it as a plant of the plains and foothills.
Krishan's images of the flowers match in terms of the shape and hairiness of
the calyces. Pity he took no photos of the habit of the plant nor foliage.
As to the name? The Plant List has neither C.benthamii nor C.canescens.......
