[efloraofindia:109505] Convolvulaceae Week, March 5 to 11, 2012: Coordinator Dr. Balkar Singh
Dear members March, 2012 episode from 5 to 11 will cover family Convolvulaceae. Dr. Balkar Singh has kindly volunteered to coordinate this episode. Members are requested to kindly upload photographs of both identified as well unidentified plants with appropriate subject line during the week. Uploads of identified plants or those meant for ID validation should have subject line: Convolvulaceae Week: ...(Scientific name) from (place) Uploads meant for ID but where family Convolvulaceae is known, subject line should be ..(unique ID consisting of ddmm+your initials+your post number for ID for the day) for ID from (place). For other uploads during the week same rules would apply, only that Convolvulaceae Week: is not to be prefixed. I must remind members that some details are essential (preferably in assigned format). These include place (this can simply not be missed in a country with great climatic diversity and diversity of flora), altitude (if known), habitat (wild or cultivated, roadsides, weed in fields, wastelands, marsh land, lake, etc.), habit (herb, shrub, tree, climber), approximate height, size of leaves, size of flowers and fruits. Any additional details will only help in quick identification. Ideally three photographs uploaded should cover habit of plant (where leaves, their type, insertion, petiole are easily seen; location of flowers and inflorescence type can be ascertained), side view close up of flower (so that expert can study bract, length of pedicel, relative length of calyx and corolla, shape of calyx and corolla) and close up of flower from above (so that number of stamens, styles, stigmas and their relative length can be ascertained). Plus if there is a some sort of scale, it is always helpful. Close up macro photographs can really confuse an expert without size estimation.

In these photographs the tree can be seen with another one (the left one in the first photograph) - *Terminalia chebula*. Sometimes two saplings of different species are planted here during any plantation programme and both of them survive. I don't know if this practice is scientific or not.
