Thanks, Anil ji, This is really strange. In both ways I could not find efi page on Codonopsis viridis (page created on 11/2/11). But for search on Codonopsis rotundifolia, this page appeared at 4th place like Codonopsis rotundifolia - efloraofindia - Google Sites <https://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=9&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjSyuOVqK7XAhUERY8KHcfSD1cQFghHMAg&url=https%3A%2F%2Fsites.google.com%2Fsite%2Fefloraofindia%2Fspecies%2Fa---l%2Fc%2Fcampanulaceae%2Fcodonopsis%2Fcodonopsis-rotundifolia&usg=AOvVaw17zlAH_kwKmstZPW6VFRyN> (page created on 26/8/12).
