Thiru ji Execellent photographs showing lateral view also. The stamens in the flower are included; corolla tube longer than lobes, lobes shortly acuminate not recurved. All these are suggestive of *Trichodesma inaequale. *This species of herb from family Boraginaceae is very common in Pune and surrounding areas. Earlier we have seen pictures of this from what I remember Prashant ji too and some more members. In *"Flowers of Sahyadri"* by Shrikant ji 2001 edition this species was wrongly labelled as *Trichodesma indicum* which he later corrected in the reprint of 2003. In another thread I will post the scanned copy of correction page given to me by him. Regards Dr Satish Phadke
