A reply from another thread ( https://groups.google.com/group/indiantreepix/browse_thread/thread/ddfb1fb455df0133?hl=en#) : Madhuri ji, you need not be a botanist to fill up the format beyond headings. There are no type/attachment/size/surface of leaves or colour and size of flowers, yet I would say this is *Talinum of Portulacaceae*. Interesting thing about this plant is that the flowers open only at 2 pm and wither by 4 pm. You can call these as 'siesta flowers'.

On 25 November 2011 11:15, Gurcharan Singh singh...@gmail.com wrote: Dear members I have repeatedly been requesting to include the name of place in both subject line and in body text. This is essential for a country like India where you may be photographing a plant at sea level or 6000 m asl. The distribution of plants is intricately linked with climatic and attitudinal zonation, and as such it is a great help for both identification and confirmation of identification. For plants meant for ID a few important things are to be kept in mind and written as information. 1. Place, date (at least month) are essential. I think approximate altitude is very useful for diverse climatic conditions in India. 2. Habit and Habitat. cultivated/roadsides/wetplaces/dry slopes/forest, etc. Habit yes slightly difficult but with some effort it can be done. One can easily write whether plant is soft (herbaceous) or woody. Woody plants with trunk are trees and those without trunk are shrubs. Climbers (vines) can be known by every one. We have only to stress it to the members. 3. Plant height, length of basal and middle leaves, diameter of flower and size of fruit. These are essential because this can't be judged from photograph, but is very essential for identification. Additionally members can always focus some scale indicator in the photograph itself to help identification. 4. I think we have to develop the habit of including minimum 3-4 photographs in uploads and not just flower for proper representation and identification. As I have been writing repeatedly if members take following photographs, the job of identification would be much easier: a) photograph showing a twig with leaves and flowers/fruits; b) close up of flower side view; c) close up of flower top view; and if possible d) photograph of fruit. 5. With above minimum information and these 3 to 4 photographs, I think identification should be more convenient. Many members often cite the time constraint in not taking and uploading sufficient photographs. I assure you it is only a question of realizing the importance and developing the habit of taking multiple photographs. No one can perhaps know more than when we went on Chakrata trip. We managed more than 6000 photographs each within a span of 4 days, fighting tight schedule, rains, bad roads and all. With tight schedule we would often pluck one twig (for plants common in the area so as not to disturb the ecosystem) and take turns to photograph in the car. One has only to see the display of photographs by Balkar ji to realize the importance of multiple photographs.

Re: [efloraindia:96483] Re: rungia pectinata perhaps mm1 23112011
I think it is interesting and there may be a lot of truth in what H S is suggested. Perhaps many specimens from Western Ghats actually belonging to Rungia elegans may have gone under the name Rungia repens. Latter is reported to be growing throughout India, but Rungia elegans is restricted to Western Deccan Penninsula, Concan and Canara (Geographical position in 1880 or so). The two species are very close but differentiated as: Rungia repens Rungia elegans 1. Stems pubescent or nearly grabrous Stems covered with white spreading hairs 2. Leaves oblong-lanceolate, up to 5 cm Leaves ovate-acuminate, up to 7 cm long long, 16 cm broad, scabrid-puberulus 4 cm broad, often white hairy beneath. 3. Spikes about 8 mm broad Spikes 12-18 mm broad 4. Bracts glabrous, about 6 mm long, Bracts longer than 6 mm, white margin broader white-margined sometimes purplish. 5. Corolla white with rose or purple spots Corolla blue, 12 mm I have a feeling that plants uploaded by Prashant ji on FOI, Dinesh ji's photostream and few other photographs from Western Ghats actually belong to Rungia elegans, and my specimens from Morni hills actually belong to Rungia repens. It is a plant with much smaller leaves and spikes as compared to these plants. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!search/Acanthaceae$20Week:$20Rungia$20repens$20from$20Morni$20Hill$20tract,$20Haryana/indiantreepix/6qoYg_w9vbU/LGl_SRSFss4J Now coming to above plant by Mohina ji, judging from size of inflorescence and dimorphic bracts, it may be Rungia pectinata as suggested by several members. It is no where near Rungia repens. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.

[efloraindia:96527] Re: [efloraofindia:87369] 12102011GS1 Boehmeria sp. from Tiger fall area Chakrata
Further exploration of this plant leads me to think that this plant may be one described in Flora of British India (vol. 5, page 578) as Boehmeria platyphylla var. scabrella wedd, characterised by leaves rugose above and short erect subsimple spikes. This plant is treated as B. macrophylla var. * scabrella* (Wedd.) D G Long, with Leaf blade 4.5-7(-10) × 2-4(-6) cm, papery, abaxial surface with reticulate veins strongly raised, adaxial surface rugose, stiffly hispid, apex gradually acuminate as against var.*macrophylla * with Leaf blade 6.5-18 × 3.2-12 cm, often membranous, abaxial surface appressed strigose, reticulate veins slightly raised, adaxial surface sparsely strigose, apex long-cuspidate, 1.5-2 cm. Female spikes ± branched, nodding at apex. It must be noted that var. *scabrella *together with Boehmeria longispica which is very similar to this and resembling our plant as seen in the link below are now considered as synonyms of Boehmeria japonica. http://findmeacure.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Boehmeria_longispica_in_Sendai_Japan.jpg Perhaps the crucial difference between B. macrophylla (uploaded already by me in separate thread and by Dinesh ji on FOI) has membranous leaves with long slender branched spikes and our above plant B. japonica characterised by thicker (papery) leaves, rugose above with raised veins and stiff erect unbranched spikes. I think my above plant should be *Boehmeria japonica* (L.f.) Miq. syn: B. macrophylla var. scabrella (Wedd.) Long; B. platyphylla var. scabrella Wedd.; B. longispica Steud. Please note that B. japonica is a polymorphic species with typical plants (see Flora China) having upper part of leaf with deep teeth. This would naturally change with inclusion of above synonyms as per The Plant List.

[efloraindia:96529] Re: Joint owners required for efi website
Dear Garg ji: we all suffer from the same problem... life gets filled with time consuming efforts and demands of family work study..etc.. I am not sure there needs to be a time frame when the database and hence the site will be ready etc... as far as I am concerned it took billions of years for this earth to develop, million or so for the homo sapiens to be fully functional and Goethe and NON_BOTANIST botanist who started organizing the hierarchy of plant forms and lived only about 200 years ... and started this phenomenon of botany study by lay people..( that's at least I think of as our heritage genetically and spiritually) so I am not sure if a year or two more to document the Indian flora makes that big a difference.. I did not say that ( ie do not rush, there is no hurry ) when Turmeric was patented in USA , we went tooth and nail... ours was one cog in the wheel that got it overturned... but in this instance.. patience and delay may be to our advantage... no need to co-own... I feel ownership only by being able to contribute whatever ((and most members I am sure feel the same.)) .. ... to this group forum... good design ideas and how to execute will come up... we need best keywords and best labels for the figures and write ups.. so that google or other search engine can find us... AND look into copyright law and intellectual property law since so many contributors are concerned... Even though I post my best pictures.. and best series...and I give my personal observations technical information etc and stories freely... I feel sometimes that copyright etc may be a concern for some photographer people and members here when they only post hazy pictures or just one picture... or when they dont want to answer my questions here about uses etc... and ethnobotany... I can cite you several examples where my questions have not been answered... sometimes even when I say Please respond se la vi... so my opinion is: let time trickle and shift things out.. IN THE MEANTIME I WISH YOU WILL GO OUT AND DO WHAT YOU LOVE BEST... ROAMING IN COUNTRYSIDE AND PHOTOGRAPHING ... that's how I came to know your name... from photos at wikipedia I honor all your efforts in starting and sustaining this organization, to document Indian flora... Spiritually, it seems to me that you are a Fifth ray type soul and hence your soul feels this need to establish this group and the website concretely .. as an organization that would outlast us and our next generation as a service to humanity... to establish it as a thing of beauty FAST... fast... And yet there is time... I guess I have said more than you perhaps want to hear... it so, sorry... But, be well and do what brings bliss, in words of Joseph Campbell Usha di = On Nov 27, 6:58 am, Gurcharan Singh singh...@gmail.com wrote: Yes Garg ji We want to remain you as single owner of this group.
