a. splendens usually is light colored neck but leaves are very different. so I don’t know what this one is Argyreia nervosa (Burm.f.) Bojer ?? No, sir, not A.nervosa. Flower size ? It seems small. Flower size is not rally small. Average to normal Ipomoea flower size. In that case please check for Argyreia capitiformis. It is not listed …! Argyreia
I know, sir. I was checking all species listed. Elevation is matching but not much images in the net and description for comparison. However, GBIF link looks matching, specially the flower cluster of the herbarium. Another aspect is that the central part does not
have dark colour compared to other sp.
I am no not fully convinced with id as Argyreia bella as per GBI specimens as leaf secondary veins look less and calyx and bracts also look somewhat different.
I am marking a copy to the author of Lectotypification of Argyreia bella (Convolvulaceae), in case he/ she helps us in the matter.
I am also not able to find description on the net. i have gone thru this exercise with you all. i cant find any more than what you folks have. Does not BSI have a monogrpah on A. Tragedy is, this species Argyreia bella was collected by Clarke from erstwhile Chhotanagpur, now Jharkhand and around … but I am yet to see any Argyreia bella post from that region on facebook Ok, thanks. picture of that lectotype collected dated 1873. the leaves are still grey green ? how is that possible
Could not find a match as per comparative images at Argyreia .
Convolvulaceae week: RVS6: Argyreia roxburghii: No images seen now.
