Re: [efloraofindia:76231] Re: Requesting id of a plant 3 seen at Iruppu, Kodagu, Karnataka

2011-08-06 Thread Mayur Nandikar
Hello everyone

First up all I wish to clear genus *Aneilema *is truly African genus and not
a single species of *Aneilema *is found in India.

However, all the earlier Indian *Aneilema *species are synonymous under few
genera like *Murdannia, Dictyospermum, Pollia *and *Rhopalephora. *

All these above mentioned genera are differentiate on the basis of capsule
and stamen character.
Stamens 6..Tradescantieae (*Cyanotis, Amischtolype, Callisia,
Tradescantia, Belosynapsis, *etc)
Stamens 2-3  (*Commelina, Murdannia,
Pollia, Rhopalephora, Dictyospermum*)

Stamens antesepalous..*Murdannia*
Stamens all anterior
Fruits sticky with hook-hairs...*Rhopalephora*
Fruit indehiscent, berry like.*Pollia*
Fruit dehiscent *Dictyospermum*

*Dictyospermum *Wight
Thyrses mostly 5- 16 cm long .*Dictyospermum
montanum *Wight
Thyrses mostly 4- 6 cm long*Dictyopsermum
ovalifolium *Wight

And I am sure (its my personal opinion) the above posted specimen is
*Dictyopsermum
ovalifolium *Wight


Thank you for giving me opportunity to explaining the things again.

 *Dictyospermum ovalifolium *has a synonym, Aneilema ovalifolium and is
 endemic to the Western Ghats.

 Shivaprakashji,

 Few clarifications (please consider these clarifications for
 better understanding of the species).

 Whether the fruits are dehiscent or indehiscent and blue at maturity?  whether
 the leaves (especially lower leaves) petioled or not? and
 the number of perfect stamens.

 Please check and share these information, if possible.

 Giby

Hello,

 As we all know earlier all d *Murdannia's* are put it under *Aneilema
*but after Bruckner they all got proper identity, *Murdannia simplex *earlier
it was *Aneilema sinicum. *Now genus *Aneilema* (with zygomorphic flowers)
is restricted to Africa and some new world countries (Faden, 1999). And
there is too much complexity in between *M. gigantea, M. loriformis *and *M.
simplex. *
 Here Ajinkya ji did little mistake in spell of *Aneilema.*

Hello,

The above one is *Commelina benghalensis *Linn. Sp. Pl. 41.1753.
I m quite sure bcoz of ovate to lanceolate leaves. It seems to be scabrous
leaves.

on the other hand *Commelina diffusa * possesses ovate-lanceolate to
elliptic lanceolate leaves and both surface glabrous.

Its very difficult to judge any *Commelina sps. *(Except few) becoz most of
them are classified on the basis of Capsule and seeds.

 Dear Prashant sir,

 Thanks a lot for sharing.

 Sounds interesting to me, but, why you said this is
 Commelinaceae..why not Orchidaceae?
 This could be Habenaria foliosa or gibsoni or panigrahiana. Habenaria
 digitata has green flowers but belongs to the same group.

 Let the flower open then click some more pics and dont forget to smell
 the flower!! and let us know whether you liked it or not :)).

Re: [efloraofindia:44739] Commelina forskaolii or C. erecta-pl. confirm

2010-08-18 Thread Mayur Nandikar
Hello,

 As per my opinion all the Commelina's are complicated, but
few characters such as spathe, capsule, seed are plays important role in
their identification.

 Your normal circumstances may be correct. Becoz, in my observations, I
never found underground (Cleistogamous) flowers in *Commelina erecta, *while
this is constant character in *C. forsskalaei *Vahl. (*Commelina-Delhi-d.jpg
*).

  Another things here is the hell lot of nomenclature problem with
*Commelina
erecta *(46 synonyms according to Miss. Bot. Garden) some
examples
*
*
***Commelina erecta *of Linn .published in Species Plantarum 1: 41. 1753. (1
May 1753); Lectotype designated by Clarke, Monogr. Phan. 3: 181(1881).

Robert Brown describes same species different epithet *Commelina undulata *R.
Br.Prodromus Florae Novae Hollandiae 270. 1810.

*Commelina kurzii* C.B. Clarke http://www.tropicos.org/Name/50045660 synonym
for *Commelina undulata *R. Br.

Now from my observation *Commelina erecta *and *Commelina kurzii *both are
different (C. B. Clarke also treat different in  Monog. Phan. 1981). *Commelina
erecta *is invasive and originate from New world while *Commelina kurzii *is
from old world (Asia). While *C.erecta* with isolate, pedunculate spathe
while *C. kurzii *with 2-3 subsessile aggregate spathe.

So finally, on the basis of spathe and cleistogamous flower it may conclude
the above posted species might be *Commelina forsskalaei *Vahl.

(hereby, some attachment for the confirmation).

Thank you

Yes Manudev ji you are right. This is *Cyanotis fasciculata *var. *
glabrescens.*
*
*
In case of this variety ...Plant is glabrous and adopted to
high altitude habitat, having monocoloured moniliform hairs on the filament
and seeds are having striations on it surfaces.

In case of typical variety i.e var. *fasciculta ...*Plant is
covered with cobwebby hairs, more succulent habit, occurs in low land even
in xeric habitat, filamental hairs are bicoloured and seeds are without any
striations on while more pitted.

 Dear all,
 This is *Carlluma diffusa *(Wight) N. E. Brown, collected from Tamil
 Nadu.

 *Caralluma* R.Br.,

 *Caralluma* named from the Arabian 'qarh alluhum', a flesh wound or
 abscess; for the floral odour of some species (Keith Bensusan, 2009). *C.
 indica* flower with rotten fungus like odour is the best example for
 this. The genus *Caralluma* is mainly paleotropical in its distribution
 and is the most widely distributed group among the stapeliads, from the
 Canary Islands in Macaronesia to the Indian subcontinent (Bruyns et al.
 2010). The subtribe Stapeliinae G. Don. belongs to the tribe Ceropegieae
 Decne ex Orb. of the subfamily Asclepiadoideae R. Br. ex Burnett (Endress 
 Bruyns 2000, Meve  Liede 2004). This subfamily has traditionally been
 treated as a family Asclepiadaceae, but molecular evidence has demonstrated
 that the group, monophyletic though it is, is ested within the Apocynaceae
 Juss. (A.P.G. 2009.)

 Stem fleshy; branches ascending, 4-angled, nearly of equal thickness
 throughout the branches; internodes glabrous. Leaves absent, leaf scars
 present, with appendage-like growth at nodes on angled portion. Flowers in
 terminal umbellate cymes, many-flowered; bracts triangular, acute at apex,
 glabrous; pedicels terete, glabrous. Calyx 5-lobed, divided up to base;
 lobes lanceolate, acute at apex, glabrous. Corolla campanulate, lobes 5,
 ovate, acute at apex, ciliate at margin only, otherwise glabrous. Corona
 biseriate; the outer annular, arising from base of stamens, closely intact;
 lobes with two horn like appendages widely separated from each other; the
 inner variable, linear, arising from inner side of outer corona,
 overlapping anther-lobes. Stamens 5, pollinia 5, pollen masses solitary in
 each anther cell, yellow, waxy with pellucid layer attached by light brown
 caudicles. Follicles up 10-15 cm in long.

 Type: India: Madras Presidency; Coimbatore District, arid rocky mountains
 near Coimbatore at 600m elevation.

 Flowering  Fruiting : Throughout the year.

Re: [efloraofindia:51042] ID Help (Cyanotis spp.?)

2010-10-17 Thread mayur nandikar
Hello
the link given by Yazdy ji is definitely of *Cyanotis cristata *only but
some people unknowingly put the different name this might be reason to get
confuse. *C. cristata *produces axillary as well as terminal Inflorescence.
Sometimes peduncle is very short so any one can easily confused while many
times flowers raised on long peduncles ( 0.7- 8.5 cm ) and foliaceous bract.
Above image is example of short peduncle. Number of flower are are also
varied you may get 1 to 10 flowered cincinni (one sided cyme) within the
species. So above image is with one flower.

Link given by Singh ji is might be something different than *Cyanotis
cristata * because the shape of bracteoles is not falcate or not lanceolate
is somewhat orbicular, and bracts and bracteole are ciliate but puburlous
also. So this may be different frm D. Don's *Cyanotis cristata.*

 I think this is Commelina caroliniana or Commelina hasskarlii.

 Do help in confirmation as I am confused if this could be Western Dayflower

 Commelina bengalenesis (Indian dayflower). This was photographed at Tulapur

Looking at so many species I realized that many grasses are

  *Tiny blue flowers on rock hills of Haldipur *

 * *

 The second week of October and it is still raining in Haldipur. Here there
 is rocky hill at a km distance from home. On reaching top we find its is
 actually a   a plain flat rock surface which stretches for about 2-3 kms

  The hills have long soaked in all the rains giving rise to an abundance
 of beautiful tiny flowering plants, a sort of bluish-purple carpeting on the
 otherwise barren landscape. Small water bodies are created here and there.
 The little blue flowers thrive near those water holes on the rock surfaces.

  Octobers always present pleasant weather in the mornings and walking on
 this vast stretch of hill plains is a great experience. Apart from a few
 forest dwellers who gather firewood and carry it on their shoulders for long
 distances, we find no human trace. Silence prevails here.


 Regards

 Raghu / Sannidi / Shradda
