Lobelia sps. from Arunachal Pradesh : Attachments (1). 2 posts by 2 authors.
I photographed this single flower in Upper Dibang Valley, Arunachal Pradesh in Oct 08.
Checking Polunin & Stainton’s, ‘Flowers of Himalaya – A Supplement’ it appears to be Lobelia seguinii var. doniana pictured on plate 58 #268.
Found from Uttar Pradesh to S.W.China, Myanmar, 1800-3200m.
There is another species found at 1200-2100m, Lobelia pyramidalis.
I think we were below 1800 m so it could very well be the latter species.


Here are links of Lobelia seguiniihttp://plant.climb.com.tw/modules/mediawiki/index.php/Lobelia_seguinii (6 pictures)- Your picture looks different from these- I don’t know if it’s because of the variety.

Here are links of Lobelia pyramidalis: (description from the book with a drawing)


Looks close to Lobelia montana Reinw. ex Blume
