By now, I have made changes to my notes in flickr. As far as the characteristic of "distinctly winged calyx" goes, I can see it in my posted plants. In the first photo, we do see a capsule in the centre; however the sepals are not completely enclosing the mature capsule.
In Garg ji's listed posts, the sepals seem to be more blunt than distinctly winged ... as such would resolve to *Lindernia crustacea*. I am not good at this assertion. So I hope that Sunoj ji will provide his comments soon and help resolve the ID. Regards. Dinesh On Sat, Oct 8, 2022 at 11:40 AM J.M.
