However, I am not satisfied with the id as *Torenia godefroyi* or *Torenia lindernioides *(with restricted range in Western Ghats and Cambodia). What about other observations from other areas at Lindernia crustacea <https://efloraofindia.com/2011/03/12/lindernia-crustacea/> like SK 3258 24 December 2021 <https://groups.google.com/g/indiantreepix/c/xoQAkxPsgTg> Lindernia sp.

In view of the above observations, I feel, we follow the broader circumspection with all these observations as Lindernia crustacea <https://efloraofindia.com/2011/03/12/lindernia-crustacea/> (as we are following now). In view Dinesh ji's plant and other similar observations from Western Ghats may also be retained as Lindernia crustacea <https://efloraofindia.com/2011/03/12/lindernia-crustacea/> only.
