Dear all, This is definitely Rhynchoglossum notonianum (Old name: Klugia notoniana ref. Gamble; II page-990). A very common seasonal herb in the Western Ghats, especially near water sources with rocky surface.
The major difference with R. obliquum is the size of the plant and the size of the flower. The plant is small and flowers are much smaller in R. obliquum, and both the species leaves are oblique.
