Prashant ji, Dr. Almeida's flora has put S. colais (Buch. - Ham ex Dillw.) as the earlier name for S. personatum (Hassk,) Chatterjee. The caudate leaves and all morphological characteristics of flowers match very well with this.
There is one more species S. personatum ( Hassk.) Chatterjee var. angustifolia (Haines) Santisukh, this one had earliar name S. colais (Buch.-Ham. ex Dillw.) Mabberley var. angustifolia (Haines). This one we do not see, the leaflets are acuminate not caudate, and corola is not wooly at base. So what we see generally see is S. personatum (Hassk.) Chatterjee. Hope this clarifies your query. regards, Rashida. On Sat, Jun 12, 2010 at 9:07 PM, Prashant awale <[email protected]> wrote: > Dear Rashida ji, > Nice set of photos.
