Asteraceae Week (Part I – Radiate heads) :: ¿ Acmella uliginosa ? for validation, at Yeoor Hills :: 16 DEC 09 02:03 :: DV41 : (2 + 3) images. 7 posts by 3 authors.
please validate this to be Acmella uliginosa; the plant is growing by road-side – scrub vegetation on waste ground. In this case, the leaves – especially basal – are larger, broader compared to those in my earlier post … perhaps owing to difference in habitat.
at Yeoor Hills, Thane on 16 DEC 09 Seems very likely…thanks … A better view of leaf base should help, also close up of head. The cropped pictures attached; hopefully it helps. I am inclined to take it as A. ciliata 1. Leaves are broader and appear ovate, not gradually narrowed at base.
2. Shape of heads is typical of A. ciliata
3. Close up of head though not very clear suggests pentamerous disc florets.

Date: 27 September 2014 Asteraceae. Appears more closer to images at Acmella ciliata (Kunth) Cass. rather than those of Acmella paniculata (Wall. ex DC.) R.K.Jansen Please compare with Acmella ciliata in eFI. Appears more closer to images at Acmella ciliata (Kunth) Cass. rather than those of Acmella paniculata (Wall. ex DC.) R.K.Jansen Yes it is A. paniculata…. a medicinal edible plant. It is popularly known as Small Marhatti (Sano marhatti) too in Nepali. The side view of flower could have made easier to identify. Thank you …! I am still a learner and lot more learn yet. Actually your interest and contribution in plants is an example for the people working and studying plants…. Thank you … for the compliments.
Yes, indeed learning process is a never ending process! No, it is not Acmella paniculata (does not have ray florets) as per details and images herein.
I had earlier identified it as Acmella ciliata (Introduced) as per details and images herein.
However, I do not find its mention in the Checklist of Nepal.
2nd best choice will be Acmella uliginosa (syn: Spilanthes iabadicensis A. H. Moore as per Catalogue of Life). Yes …! Need to check it, with details.. Yes It is not A paniculata as per its characters. Other options could be A. calva, A. ciliata Did not find listing of A. ciliata in Nepal unless it is a new to Nepal. I think Acmella ciliata (Kunth) Cass. only. Confirm by Prof. Chen: Acmella paniculata ! But leaf base appears to be cordate and not cuneate.
