Plumbaginaceae, Primulaceae & Myrsinaceae Fortnight 1-14June2014: Maesa montana (?) from Uttarakhand_DSR_5 : 4 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (1).
This white flowered uncommon shrub was shot near Jeolikot in Uttarakhand (1200m) and identified as Maesa montana. Validation is requested.
This could be Measa argentea.
This species is sometime found in between 800-2500 m along the slopes or may be near to the streams. SK243DEC16-2016:ID : 8 posts by 4 authors. Attachments (3)

Some Maesa sp to me. Yes Maesa sp., this shrub is quite common in Pithroragarh district.
Looks like Maesa argentea (Wall.) A. DC. (accepted name) but altitude is not matching.
Please validate.

Maesa montana A. DC. ??
Why POWO not snowing distribution in Nepal ??
Any comment on this ? Flora of China also does not its distribution in Nepal as Checklist of Nepal in its present status can not be much relied upon.
Pl. check comparative images at Maesa
Pl. check Maesa argentea (Wall.) A. DC. as per comparative images at Maesa
To me appears close.
I checked but found it close to my guess. FoC says “lateral veins 8-12 on each side of midrib“
