Flora of Orissa:  kindly conform the identity of Pancratium parvum.

Place of collection: Karlapat sanctuary, Kalahandi, Orissa
Date of collection:6/6/2009
Habit: Perrenial herb
Habitat: Terrestrial, growing after forest fire and first mansoon rain
Height of the plant: 30-40cm
Flowering: May-june


Please note the difference in the staminal cup between this plant and P. parvum (IDd recently in a post). This plant has a open larger cup with bifid teeth between long stamens which places this as P. triflorum. P. parvum has short, closed staminal cup and filaments are barely longer than the cup. However I am not familiar with flora of orissa to rule out any other species.


Looks different from other images at Pancratium triflorum
