Dear Tabish Ji,

That means Nepal does not have *Craterostigma sessiliflorum *(Benth.)
Y.S.Liang & J.C.Wang though
some of the databases showing its distribution in Nepal maybe because of
the identification
confusion. Also the latest book by KK shrestha et all also do not have this
sp. for Nepal.
Thank you.

Saroj Kasaju
