That is why I suggested *Viola reichenbachiana, V. sylvestris is mentioned synonym of both databases mentioned by you and in eFlora of Pakistan of **Viola reichenbachiana**. My Plant has to be belonging to one of the two, and if it is not V. riviniana, it has to be V. reichenbachiana. That is what I mentioned in my post. eFlora of Pakistan lists all species from Kashmir, and it does list V. **reichenbachiana. ** Flora of India also reports its distribution in Kashmir.*
