This is a recently described taxa from Karnataka. Ceropegia bhatii S. R. Yadav & Shendage, discovered from Malebennur Ghat in Davangere district of Karnataka State is described and illustrated.
It is similar to Ceropegia noorjahaniae M. A. Ansari but is distinct in its twining habit, two-flowered cyme, slightly inflated corolla tube and corolla lobe margins that are not recurved.
