Satish ji I think we have decided to follow in order of preference: 1. Kew World checklist, for genera which are covered 2. Sorting Plant Names of M. M. P. N. D, for genera covered 3. GRIN for the taxa which are covered therein 4. Latest Flora or Monograph
Kew World Checklist recognises Oldenlandia corymbosa and O. herbacea as accepted names and Hedyotis corymbosa and H. herbacea as synonyms, respectively. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
