This was my earlier feedback in this thread: As it appears closer to images at *Arenaria serpyllifolia *L. <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/c/caryophyllaceae/arenaria/arenaria-serpyllifolia> (Sepals 3.5-4 mm, lanceolate, acute to acuminate, scabrid, ± glandular or glabrous, margin scarious, usually 3-veined. Petals white, less than the length of the sepals. Capsule exceeding the sepals ...), but sepals are shorter than petals. I looked at keys in Flora of Pakistan <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=102519>, where another closer species was Arenaria leptoclados <http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.efloras.org%2Fflorataxon.aspx%3Fflora_id%3D5%26taxon_id%3D250090979&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNF9eVDQ2i4k2pNpUo-y4FnzaVnH4g> (Similar to *Arenaria serpyllifolia *but leaves obovate to spathulate, especially lower ones, usually mucronulate; sepals 2.5-3 mm. lanceolate, exceeding capsule, the calyx gradually narrowing above, not thickened at the base) Flora of Pakistan <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=200007030> says *Arenaria serpyllifolia* is very similar to the following 3 species (I think *Arenaria orbiculata* <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=242000219>, *Arenaria neelgerrensis* <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=242304044> & *Arenaria leptoclados* <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=250090979>) described next and often difficult to separate satisfactorily. Variable in its vegetative characters, especially the indument. *A. serpyllilfolia* is a tetraploid (2n=40) and probably derived from *A. leptoclados* (a diploid) and another closely related species (McNeill, l.c. 1967).
