Nearly 16 species are known in Uttarakhand and 14 in Himachal Pradesh (vide Chowdhery& Wadhwa, 1984).
I am attaching a page of Osmaston 1927 (one of the fine document for woody species of this part of the Himalaya) which contains keys for 14 species. Species known in HP are mentioned in keys as HP by me.
Hope it helps!  Attachments (1)
——

I too appreciate this key and by the way
this website has a pdf that can be downloaded for free the 1927 book
http://pahar.in/wpfb-file/1927-a-forest-flora-for-kumaon-by-osmaston-s-pdf/
its large file so it me about 7 minutes to dnload in  the background.

I have updated eFI (efloraofindia) page on Lonicera & Devendraea (Pl. click).

Attempts have been made to incorporate most of the species available in India & nearby areas with details & keys directly or through links as far as possible. It’s quite possible that there may be some discrepancy in the accepted names & synonyms taken from other links.

Species discussed so far in efloraofindia are given at the bottom of the page in the form of links against Subpages. On clicking them one can see all the details.

If someone can provide complete list of Indian species with source references it will be wonderful.

Any comments/ corrections are welcome.

Pl. go through ‎‎‎Lonicera (‎Caprifoliaceae‎‎) page with images of species (done by …) in efloraofindia.

If you find any mis-identification, pl. let us know. If anybody can send images of other species of this genera (for incorporation in the website), if any, it will be really nice.

Also, if anybody is interested to take up the activity of inserting images on efloraofindia pages from efloraofindia posts, pl. let us know.

This subpage listing has missed some species (given below) from Himachal Pradesh.
1. Lonicera hispida
2. Lonicera alpigena
3. Lonicera orientalis
4. Lonicera angustifolia
5. Lonicera parvifolia

Thanks, … If you have them, pl. post.

Sir, I’ll check my folders.

Subpage listings are the lists of species available in eFI only. Correctly pointed out by you is the lack of few species from Himachal Pradesh. As soon as these or the other species of any genus not available in eFI is/ are posted to the group … add it to eFI page.
Thank you for continuously adding species to efi.

Thank you, respected …  I’ll also try to photograph some species this season which grow in Shimla hills.
