Re: [efloraindia:96031] efloraindia, efloraofindia or both in the subject line?

2011-11-23 Thread J.M. Garg
Hi, Shrikant ji,
You create a seperate folder containing words like
'indiantreepix@googlegroups.com', then everything related to efloraofindia
or efloraindia will come in the same folder.

On 23 November 2011 13:24, Dinesh Valke dinesh.va...@gmail.com wrote:

 Shrikant ji,
 Recently Garg ji decided to change the name of our group from
 efloraofindia to efloraindia ... WHY ? ... with the hope that the contents
 of the group's website at https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/gets 
 indexed by Googlebot, which would thus figure in search results.

 He has observed that the contents of the website does not feature in
 search results, though the contents of the group's discussions positively
 come up.

 Solution to your difficulty:
 Your inbox successfully routes all messages associated with the earlier
 tag eflora*of*india to a particular foilder.
  -- that is due to your own efforts of creating a filter to route all
 messages with the word efloraofindia in the subject line to the
 particular folder.
 Requesting you to create another similar filter to route all messages with
 the word efloraindia in the subject line to that particular folder.

 Hope this helps.

That is why I was asking for close ups
It is not clear from your photographs whether tips of corolla are purple or
not.
I had thought of C. cornuta but capsules should be obovate, but in your
photograph they appear linear. Perhaps C. stewartii is better option

 Looks like *Cassia bahamensis*, based on the leaves (origin South Asia).

Surely the two are different
In Cordia sinensis (syn: C. gharaf Forssk; C. rothii Roem.  sch.), corolla
lobes are much narrower, 4 in number and reflexed. The above plant seems to
have 5, much broader corolla lobes which are spreading. lso flower are too
large for cordia.

grandiflora
To: efloraofindia indiantreepix@googlegroups.com, Tabish 
tabi...@gmail.com


Genus Campsis has been confusing me a lot for quite some time.
Traditionally two species of this genus are recognized as common garden
trumpet creepers:

*Campsis grandiflora*: leaflets 7-9; glabrous beneath; 4-7 cm long, paler
green; calyx 5-lobed to middle; flowers orange to scarlet, corolla tube
nearly one and half times as long as calyx, limb nearly 5-6 cm across;
capsule 10-15 cm long, obtuse at apex, without beak.

*Campsis radicans*: leaflets 9-11, pubescent beneath especially along
midreib and main veins, dark green above; calyx shortly 5-lobed, lobes less
than 1/3 the tube; flowers orange with scarlet limb, 2-3 times as long as
calyx, usually less than 4 cm across; capsule cylindric-oblong, 7-12 cm
long, keeled along sutures, beaked at apex.

I have been following the specimens of Campsis in Delhi, Kashmir,
California and other places and frankly have not been able to locate a true
sample of C. gandiflora. Most of the samples found in Kashmir and Delhi
which look like C. grandiflora do not bear fruits, flowers fall off when
mature and number of leaflets varry from 7-11 (-13). This sterile hybrid is
actually C. X tagliabuana, a hybrid between C. radicans and C. grandiflora.
Both specimens at at FOI (C. radicans as well as C. grandiflora) i think
belong to this hybrid species, which is propagated by cuttings.

*I would be extremely happy if any member is able to find and can upload a
true specimen of C. grandiflora (7-9 leaflets, leaflets glabrous beneath,
calyx divided up to middle, corolla tube 1 1/2 times as long as calyx, more
important it produces fruits which are 10-15 cm long and without beak at
tip)*

 Surely the two are different
 In Cordia sinensis (syn: C. gharaf Forssk; C. rothii Roem.  sch.),
 corolla lobes are much narrower, 4 in number and reflexed. The above plant
 seems to have 5, much broader corolla lobes which are spreading. lso flower
 are too large for cordia.

 Other information [Source: Wwikipedia]

 Nepenthes rafflesiana (pronounced /nɨˈpɛnθiːz ræˌfliːziˈɑːnə/, after
 Stamford Raffles), or Raffles' Pitcher-Plant, is a species of pitcher
 plant. It has a very wide distribution covering Borneo, Sumatra,
 Peninsular Malaysia, and Singapore. N. rafflesiana is extremely
 variable (second only to N. mirabilis) with numerous forms and
 varieties described. In Borneo alone, there are at least four distinct
 varieties. The giant form of this species produces enormous pitchers
 rivaling those of N. rajah in size.

 Nepenthes rafflesiana is a very widespread lowland species. It is
 common in Borneo and parts of the Riau Archipelago, but has a
 restricted distribution in both Peninsular Malaysia and Sumatra. It is
 only widespread in the southeastern region of the Malay Peninsula,
 particularly in the state of Johor, where it is relatively abundant.
 N. rafflesiana has only been recorded from the west coast of Sumatra,
 between Indrapura and Barus.

 N. rafflesiana generally occurs in open, sandy, wet areas. It has been
 recorded from kerangas forest, secondary formations, margins of peat
 swamp forest, heath forest, and seaside cliffs. It grows at elevations
 ranging from sea-level to 1200 m or even 1500 m.

 Most wild populations of Nepenthes, including N. rafflesiana, are
 endangered due to habitat destruction and (to a lesser extent)
 poaching. N. rafflesiana is currently listed as a CITES Appendix II
 plant, so it does have some international trade restrictions (though
 not an outright ban). Today, most N. rafflesiana plants on the market
 are propagated by plant tissue culture or other forms of vegetative
 propagation. When purchasing any plant, especially those protected by
 CITES, it is important to ask the vendor about the plant's provenance.

 notable of which is N. mirabilis var. echinostoma, a rare variety
 endemic to Brunei and Sarawak that possesses an extremely wide

 The conservation status of N. mirabilis is listed as Least Concern on

 According to Matthew Jebb and Martin Cheek, the pitchers of N.

 Few more information on the plant [Source Wikipedia]:

Nepentheskhasiana (pronounced /nɨˈpɛnθiːz ˌkæsiˈɑːnə/, after the
 Khasi Hills, to which it is largely endemic) is a tropical pitcher
 plant of the genusNepenthes. It is the onlyNepenthesspecies native
 to India.

 The species has a very localised distribution and is rare in the wild.
 Isolated populations are known to occur in the Jarain area of the
 Jaintia Hills and the Baghmara area of the Garo Hills, adjacent to the
 Khasi Hills region of Meghalaya. Nevertheless, N. khasiana exhibits
 considerable genetic diversity.

 The Khasi people call the plant tiew-rakot, which means demon-flower
 or devouring-plant. The Jaintias call it kset phare, which is roughly
 translated as lidded fly net. The Garo call the plant memang-koksi,
 which literally means the basket of the devil.

Nepentheskhasiana is a protected species, classified as Endangered,
 and is on CITES Appendix I along with N. rajah. In 2010, The Rare
NepenthesCollection was established with the aim of conserving 4 of
 the most threatenedNepenthesspecies: N. aristolochioides, N.
 clipeata, N. khasiana, and N. rigidifolia.

 Pitcher-Plant, is a Nepenthes species found on the islands of Borneo
 and Sumatra. Although some sources have included Peninsular Malaysia
 and Singapore within the range of this species, these records appear
 to be erroneous. Nepenthes reinwardtiana has an unusually wide
 altitudinal distribution of 0–2200 m, being both a lowland and
 highland plant. There are many different colour forms, ranging from
 green to dark red. This species is known for the two eye spots on
 the inside surface of its pitchers.

 Nepenthes × burkei Hort.Veitch ex Gard. Chron. ii. 492 et 493 fig. 69.
 1889.

 Family: NEPENTHACEAE

 WIKI: Nepenthes burkei is a tropical pitcher plant native to the
 island of Mindoro in the Philippines, where it grows at an elevation
 of 1100–2000 m. It is very closely related to N. sibuyanensis and N.
 ventricosa. It has only recently entered cultivation.
 The plant list says it as a hybrid but wiki says its native to
 Philippines.
