A herb found wild enroute to Mayodia Pass in Lower Dibang Valley in Arunachal, which is above 2000 m altitude.

Precise altitude of the location where the plant was found is uncertain.

Found flowering in January.

I have no clue to its identity.

Please identify

Asystasia sp. ??

Actually it was at lower altitudes, 150-500 m.

Navendu Pāgé identified it as Codonacanthus pauciflorus, native to East Himalaya to Japan.

Agrees well with images in the following:

My guess worked !

You are right …! Asystasia pauciflora is a synonym!
