Would appreciate feedback on whether this is S. bigemina only. Smithia salsuginea Hance ?? On further checking comparative images at Smithia, I also feel it is more closer to Smithia salsuginea Hance as per images, details and references herein. .
This was seen growing on the lateritic plateau near Devgad, coastal Kokan, MH in Aug 2021.
Is this some Smithia?
