My first reaction was Urtica only, but never seen such stems and leaves in U. dioica or U. parviflora. It could be U. urens as per the following link
http://sauce.pntic.mec.es/ldepablo/images/Urtica-urens.jpg You are correct. However, there is some difference between the pictures posted by … and the picture in your link. Is there any way in which we can go through my old mails. I had posted an identical picture earlier and it was identified. if we could go through my old mails on eflora site, we could be more clear. This plant plant was up-loaded as possible Urtica sp.
I had suggested Urtica urtens but after seeing the species U. urens in California and one up-loaded by … from Uttarakhand, the above plant is definitely not U. urens.
The identification is still elusive. Experts can help It is Laportea interrupta (L.) Chew of Urticaceae. Flowers are not visible here which appear in long, axillary, interrupted pseudo-spikes. Stinging hairs are present on both surfaces of leaves but less irritating than Urtica spp. Thanks … for finally Resolving it. Habit: Herb Fleurya interrupta (L.) Gaudich.
Family: Euphorbiaceae It is Leportea sp. of family Urticaceae.. Laportea interrupta (Urticaceae) to me. I am too if the same opinion. Beautifully photographed.
