Photographed in September from near Dakpathar and near Baratkhai along road to Chakrata. This plant was difficult to fix because of lot of variation in this species, but then distinct upper veins clinched the issue. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
