Lamiaceae herb for Identification SN 16March 07 : 7 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (2)
Herb at roadside from Kangra area of Himachal



This herb was recorded from Morni hills recently..
I could not get to its id, generic level suggestion from an expert says this is any Pogostemon sp…
Please give your inputs towards id..

Please also check for Ajuga macrosperma.


If filaments are hairy it may be Pogostemon sp.


so one needs to dissect the flower and take close ups of the parts? or atleast make notes and report them?
is that how it goes?

This is not Pogostemon.


It might be Ajuga species and not Pogostemon.


I also think closer to images at Ajuga macrosperma Wall. ex Benth.

It looks like Ajuga macrosperma to me.
Lamiaceae.

Habit : Wild 
Labiatae ??

Could be Pogostemon sp.


Any hint from the list I could not match.
Pogostemon

Sorry …; am not able to confirm sp. because Lamiaceae have more morphological variations, we want to check with keys from Nepal flora, sir.


I sent the list found in Nepal


It was in my first reply to you.
However resending.
Pogostemon



Does not look like Pogostemon !


How do you say that ?


My observation is :

1. Difference in flowering season.
2. Difference of elevation.
3. Difference of leaf pattern
4. It is more hairy on flowering tuft in this sp compared to P. benghalensis.

Ajuga macrosperma Wall. ex Benth.??

Yes, appears close as per Ajuga macrosperma and the links given by you.

Appears close to Ajuga macrosperma Wall. ex Benth. as per comparative images at Ajuga
Pl. check.

Looks like Ajuga, but leaves and inflorescence characters are somewhat different from A. macrosperma, as I have seen more dentate form only (leaf margins toothed). this might be variation. In A. macrosperma the inflorescence is not dense as here but may be ecological variation. So for time being keep in A. macrosperma!

Which Lamiaceae??

Looks like either Scutellaria or Ajuga. But in Scutellaria the flowers are some what long and curved, so I feel Ajuga!
