Many thanks dear Sam ji, for the appreciation, and for validating the
Malayalam names and their English spellings.
Will shortly revise the English spelling of കൊഴുപ്പ to the corrected
version; kozhupa.

I am going with Hermann Gundert's "A Malayalam and English dictionary"
which lists the name for *Achyranthes triandra*, synonym of *Alternanthera
sessilis*. Sometimes the local folks use a name for more than one plant -
perhaps for some kind of similarity among them..

Regards.
Dinesh
