Hygrophila species so far in efi 


It is a Hygrophila sp allright


This species might be Hygrophila phlomoides Nees, as per key in Bengal Plants and Botany of Bihar & Orissa.


This appears different from ID requested DS_FORID_WEED2.0_16022012: earlier identified as Hygrophila phlomoides


Following may be of some help:
I think it is H. phlomoides.


Thanks, …,
Than what is the plant in this thread: ID requested DS_FORID_WEED2.0_16022012: earlier identified as Hygrophila phlomoides

This attached plant similar with previous pictures but it is also without thorn and leaf structure is different than previous posted pictures 


This set likely to be Hygrophila phlomoides Nees. Please note, H. p. var. roxburghii is distributed in Sunderbans.


efi page on Hygrophila phlomoides  


There is one Hygrophila phlomoides Nees var. roxburghii C. B. Clarke. in FoC and in TPL, and the difference/ key can be found in http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=116043#KEY-1-5.

But, Sir Prain (also FBI) connects H. p. roxburghii with Ruellia obovata Roxb., not with Ruellia erecta Burm. f. as in FoC.
The KEY in BP –
i) stem erect; leaves elliptic or oblong, subsessile = phlomoides
ii) stem procumbent or geniculate; leaves obovate, shortly petioled = var. roxburghii
Both can be found Chittagong and var. roxburghii in Sundarban.
Assuming leaves are oblong in this plant I think it should be H. p. only.

Hygrophila phlomoides of Acanthaceae

2nd image may not be of Hygrophila phlomoides 


These are same plants.


I had a question, since I saw this post, and I perused Hygrophila in EFI. 

Still a bit unclear ….. What is the telltale difference between H. phlomidis and H. ringens
Somewhere I read H. phlomidis has hairy leaves, H. ringens has not. (I think Flora of China) . 
Here in Surat I have H. auriculata, recently I saw, I think H. polysperma, and H. ringens/ phlomidis in need of being sorted out !!

Yes, …, Keys are available at Flora of China
