Thanks Mayur for the identification. Looks like I was on the right track - I was searching for some name like Murdannia reticulata (reticulata means net-veined) - but no such species exists! :-) striatipetala means, having striped petals. I have sent a query to the photographer - will post when she responds. Cheers! - Tabish
