Hebri, Karnataka Check for Nilgirianthus warreensis… Thank you sir. Is it a synonym of Strobilanthes warreensis? Pl. also see this pdf: http://xavierscollege-goa.com/national/5.pdf I don’t believe this is an Acanthaceae, let alone a Strobilanthes. Try Clerodendron (Verbenaceae) or Scrophulariaceae S.L. the given plant specimen is Strobilanthes ciliatus Nees. Please check Rheedea. 23 (1): 1-7. 2013, for the paper ” Taxonomic status of Strobilanthes warreensis (Acanthaceae), an endemic species of Western Ghats, India” in which I have merged Strobilanthes warreensis Dalzell with Strobilanthes ciliatus Nees.
