SK98SEP12-1016:ID : 11 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (8) Orobanchaceae member ? Striga species ? I guess it is matching with Striga angustifolia (D. Don) C. J. Saldanha based on flower, color of flower, stem and altitude as per eflora Nepal. Request for further validation whether it is S. angustifolia or S. masuria. Do you have images of the habit ?  Adding some pictures but not so clear. Attachments (4) If we follow the Flora of China keys, it should be Striga densiflora (which gives its distribution in China, India, Sikkim)
But it is not given in the checklist of Nepal.  I went to the spot again yesterday and shot some pictures which I believe would support for correct ID. Attachments (6) The calyx is 15-ribbed and the lobes are as long as the tube. So, this should be Striga angustifolia. Pl. have a look at these images- these look different from the images you commented upon. I guess it is matching with Striga angustifolia (D. Don) Saldanha. I feel it is slight difference from S. densiflora and S. angustifloia.
Different images are found for the same sp. in the web.
Could some one verify with the images of herbarium ? You have to go through the keys in FOC and decide. I feel it is slight difference from S. densiflora and S. angustifloia.
