Respected Garg ji and other members, There's correction required in Impatiens scabrida page.
Actually what we have long treated as Impatiens scabrida DC. is actually Impatiens tricornis Lindl. Impatiens scabrida DC. type specimen is characterised by having navicular lower sepal and a long straight downwardly curved spur. While Impatiens tricornis is characterised by having bucciniform to funnel-shaped lower sepal abruptly constricted into the spur, which we can see in our Impatiens scabrida page images. So the Impatiens sp. that we earlier know as Impatiens scabrida is actually Impatiens tricornis. For details please check 'Studies of Impatiens (Balsaminaceae) of Nepal 3.
