Chenopodiaceae and Amaranthaceae Week: Dysphania ambrosioides (L.) Mosyakin & Clemants from Delhi, Mandi, Ramban and Kashmir…GS-22:
Dysphania ambrosioides (L.) Mosyakin & Clemants, Ukrayins’k. Bot. Zhurn. new ser., 59:382. 2002 Syn: Chenopodium ambrosioides L.
Common names: Wormseed; Spanish-tea, Mexican-tea; Jerusalem-tea; American wormseed
Bad smelling much-branched annual or short-lived perennial herb, up to 1.5 m tall, covered with stalked glandular hairs, pale green in appearance, striate; leaves oblong-ovate to lanceolate, up to 12 cm long, sinnuate-dentate, subglabrous on upper surface, glandular hairy beneath, upper smaller and subentire; flower green or reddish in open clusters, forming spikes or panicles, clusters often subtended by leafy bracts; perianth usually 5-lobed, sometimes 3; stamens5; stigmas 3-5, spreading; Utricle enclosed in perianth.
Common in wastelands. Photographed from Delhi, Mandi (Himachal Pradesh), Ramban (J & K) and Kashmir Nice Set of Pics Sir. This is common weed in our area (Panipat)
[1032013] AP1-Plant for id from Ambala Cantt Haryana: (mixed thread): 9 correct images as above. It may be Chenopodium ambrosioides.To me also this looked like C. ambrosoides, you can do little efforts to confirm, try to locate the plant, smell the foliage, if this gives a sharp smell, it is confirmed..
Hooghly Today : Chenopodium ambrosioides L. ??? : 11 images. 3 posts by 2 authors. Of course this is Chenpodium ambrosoides, the latest name being Dysphania ambrosoides.. nice detailed pics..
Urticaceae? ABJUL01/43 : 12 posts by 3 authors. 7 images.
Finally this plant which I think could belong to Urticaceae looking at the very tiny flowers and sessile buds. The leaves were very different from any of the nettles I have seen, so it may be a completely different family. Please advise. Very interesting details & nice capture!!! This could be a species of Ammannia (Ammannia baccifera). The plant seems to have been infected. Thanks, …, for the possible Id. Appears like images at Ammannia baccifera, but I am not too sure. Is it strongly aromatic herb? If so there are possibilities of Dysphania ambrosioides (Chenopodiaceae). Thank you once again … I am afraid I do not remember checking it for aroma but I can go and find the plant soon and report back. Your ID looks tantalisingly close. You were spot on …. It is a very strong smelling herb.
I cannot place the smell, something between a balm and kerosene, but not altogether unpleasant. Do you think I can brew a tea with the leaves?

Seen this small herb en-route Mahabaleshwar near a water stream.. Please check for Pouzolzia zeylanica. efi page on Pouzolzia zeylanica Pouzolzia for sure, but looks too much branched for P. zeylanica. I think it should be Dysphania ambrosioides (Chenopodiaceae).
DV – 25AUG10 – 0735 :: ¿ Amaranthaceae / Asteraceae ? – efloraofindia | Google Groups . Chenopodiaceae and Amaranthaceae Week: RVS-8: Dysphania ambrosioides: . AMARANTHACEAE-CHENOPODIACEAE week DSR..006. Chenopodium ambrosioides: Yes … Very good photograph
Chenopodiaceae and Amaranthaceae Week: NS 003: Chenopodium ambrosioides : Yes … One of the most badly smelling plants under Chenopodium. . Chenopodiaceae and Amaranthaceae Week :: DV20 :: QUERY :: Chenopodium ambrosioides citations: At ENVIS / FRLHT, we have Chenopodium ambrosioides Bert. ex Steud.
At NPGS / GRIN, we have Chenopodium ambrosioides L. synonym of Dysphania ambrosioides (L.) Mosyakin & Clemants
Naively hoping that the two Chenopodium ambrosioides are related as synonyms … ELSE getting names for Dysphania ambrosioides in languages of India is going to get difficult !
Please throw some light – whether these are synonyms. If the two Chenopodium ambrosioides are NOT related as synonyms … there may be some error somewhere … English names listed for Chenopodium ambrosioides Bert. ex Steud. at ENVIS / FRLHT .. are ditto that of Dysphania ambrosioides (L.) Mosyakin & Clemants at Wikipedia and elsewhere. OK … I will go with common names listed for Chenopodium ambrosioides Bert. ex Steud.

This is a non-invasive, annual weed in Dhanotu Village (altitude: 770m, near Dharamsala, Kangra, HP). The leaves emit a really strong, unpleasent odor when crushed.
Any other images? Yes, I have attached them. Attachments (1) – 5 Mb

Wild Herb for ID : Bangalore : 17SEP20 : AK-21 : 7 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (2) Chenipodiaceae member, Dysphania ambrosioides, . Dysphania ambrosioides (L.) Mosyakin & Clemants: 8 very high resolution images. Location: Chandragiri

. Dysphania ambrosioides (L.) Mosyakin & Clemants: 5 very high res. images. Location: Surkhet, West Nepal
Altitude: 649m.
Date: 27 August 2021
Habit : Wild . Manipuri name of Dysphania ambrosioides in Meitei script: Tersing doesn’t appear to be a correct name. Manipuri people around me haven’t heard of a word called tersing. Nambi means smell. One guess is that tersing may be a distortion of kerosene – old Manipuri folks pronounce it as तेरासिन. So the meaning could be, something smelling like kerosene. The plant is anyway known to have a pungent smell. One name of this plant is ꯃꯣꯟꯁꯥꯥꯑꯣꯕꯤ ꯃꯥꯟꯕꯤ Monsaobi manbi I am aware of the name ꯃꯣꯟꯁꯥꯥꯑꯣꯕꯤ ꯃꯥꯟꯕꯤ Monsaobi manbi from your site.
Your guess about tersing for kerosene is a very great help.
तेरासिन must be one of the pronunciation for the foreign word “kerosene”.
Thus, I think tersing nambi is okay for putting in Meitei script … though literal meaning may sound amusing – kerosene smelling
Mizo name for the plant is on same lines – – khawnvar-tui-rim-nam … (khawnvar-tui = kerosene; rim-nam = smelling)
Malayalam name for the plant is മണ്ണെണ്ണച്ചെടി mannennachcheti … (kerosene plant) Deadly research you did in a matter of an hour on this aspect! Now Kerosene fits well, as the plant names have similar allusions in Mizo and Malayalam. That is why I am continually amazed at your plant names research! Great job!
Tersing nambi will be written as ꯇꯦꯔꯁꯤꯡ ꯅꯝꯕꯤ (pronounced as तेरसिंग नम्बी)
By the way, I know Kapil Arambam and Chitra Ahanthem quite well. Thank you very much dear … for help with this name of the plant.
I wish more and more that the names of plants in north-eastern languages come to be known – and as much possible in their native scripts. Challenging but satisfying work !! . Amaranthaceae: Dysphania ambrosioides (L.) Mosyakin & Clemants: 1 image.
