Can it be Dyschoriste vagans (Wight) Kuntze as inflorescence does not appear to be fasicled as per keys in the book thumbnail in Flora of Peninsular India?


Yes, it is.


thank you, yes it is Dyschroste erecta, for the glandular nature, I have corrected in my collection.


Did you mean to say Dyschoriste vagans (Wight) Kuntze instead of Dyschroste erecta ?


Images are also glandular at Dyschoriste vagans (Wight) Kuntze
Can it be Dyschoriste vagans (Wight) Kuntze as inflorescence does not appear to be fasicled as per keys in the book thumbnail in Flora of Peninsular India?
Or is there any other key?


I agree it as D.vagans only, earlier I have referred some other book, but now I am correcting with Kew notes only
