Ranunculus diffusus:
Ranunculus diffusus from Gulmarg. Pl validate

The flowers look too big for R. diffusus. I think think this one is R. hirtellus, very common in Gulmarg and Khillenmarg.

Seen this herb en-route Dhel Pass at GHNP at an altitude of apprx. 3500m.
Could this be Ranunculus laetus ?? pl. validate the ID..
Family: Ranunculaceae
Date/Time: 28-09-2014 / 10:30AM

Not R. laetus. Some other species of Ranunculus.

I think it’s Ranunculus hirtellus

The plant resembles R. bulbosus

Ranunculus bulbosus is not found in India as per Ranunculus 

I also think it to be R. hirtellus

Could this be Anemone obtusiloba
looks very similar to this
would appreciate an identification
we saw this on the Tunganath trek Uttarakhand
at an altitude of about 12,000 feet
in the first week of may 2018

Ranunculus diffusus DC  ??

I think that you are right about this
To me appears more closer to images at Ranunculus hirtellus rather than those at Ranunculus diffusus

In absence of lower leaves the closest match for me is Ranunculus distans (syn: R. laetus).

Smaller flower size, hairy achenes, I think R. hirtellus

id request Ranunculus diffusus?: 2 high res. images.
Please have a look at the attached images of Ranunculus, it seems R. diffusus for me.

Captured – Tungnath Uttarakhand.
alt 3300m amsl.
April 2021

No diffusus. Please add images of habitat, leaf, fruit if any and other aspects of the sp.

Sorry sir, have only these two images.

To me appears close to images at Ranunculus hirtellus Royle as per comparative images at Ranunculus.
Habit image may have settled the issue.

Pl. check images at Ranunculus hirtellus Royle
To me appears close.
2nd option is Ranunculus distans subsp. distans

yes it is possible.

I’d required for this Ranunculus sp: 1 high res. image.
