Torenia or Lindernia? 270810-PKA2 : Attachments (9). 10 posts by 6 authors. Came across this herb at “Hasha-Chi- Patti” on the way to Matheran. I had seen only one plant in the entire stretch. I remember seeing the similar herb at Purandar. Lindernia ——– calyx lobes not winged on back, actinomorphic I think Torenia from the Sir Ji’s key but not sure of the species This is definitely a Torenia sp. possibly Torenia lindernioides. Photo from Nadugani Ghats of Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve. I took the photo one month before. Appears same as … plant Yes sir, It is more or less look like the earlier plant. …, as requested by you, I checked the keys in Dr. Almeida’s flora. Your plant is certainly Torenia. There are eight species of Torenis described in the flora. The main distinguishing feature being calyx narrowly winged or calyx broadly winged. There are two features that stand out in your post. The deltoid ovate leaves and the arching filaments. I am not sure whether the calyx in your pictures should be considered narrowly or broadly winged. If one considers the calyx broadly winged- it should be T. indica. It is found in Matheran.
Here the key from the flora Vol III B , pg 423:
Torenia Linn
1.Calyx broadly winged ——— 2
2. Filaments toothed —- T. cordifolia
2. Filaments not toothed 3
3. Flowers with dark purple patches —- T.fournieri
3.Flowers without dark purple patches — T. indica
1. Calyx narrowly winged 4
4. Fruiting calyx ribbed 5
5. Flowers solitary 6
6. Calyx hirsute; corolla pale blue with dark
blotches on the lobes of lower lip —— T. diffusa
6. Calyx not hirsute ; corolla purple, no
dark blotcheson lips —–T. bicolor
5. Flowers in clusters ——–T. thouarsii
4. Fruiting calyx not ribbed 7
7.Corolla less thn 1 cm long —- T. lindernioides
7. Corolla more than 2 cm long — T. asiatica
I am enclosing two sp. for comparison. As per me the left ones are Torenia indica and the right ones are unidentified. These looks totally different. Requesting members to have a look. I think Torenia fournieri I think close to images at Lindernia nummulariifolia (D.Don) Wettst.

Taking this as Craterostigma sessiliflorum in view of discussion at Craterostigma nummulariifolium (D.Don) Eb. Fisch., Schäferh. & Kai Müll.

But what surprised me is that Catalogue of Life gives distribution of Craterostigma nummulariifolium (D. Don) Eb. Fisch., Schäferh. & Kai Müll. (syn: Lindernia nummularifolia (D. Don) Wettst.) as Senegal, Sierra Leone, Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Gabon, Sudan, South Sudan, Ethiopia, D.R. Congo (Zaire), Rwanda, Burundi, Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Angola, Zambia, Malawi, Zimbabwe, Madagascar, Society Isl. (I) (Tahiti (I)), Fiji (I).
That sent me on the hunt for correct id of our plant.
Pl. see Lindernia nummulariifolia (D.Don) Wettst., Nat. Pflanzenfam. 4(3b): 80 1891. (syn: Vandellia nummulariifolia D. Don, Prodr. Fl. Nepal. 86. 1825; Lindernia sessiliflora (Bentham) Wettstein; Vandellia chinensis T. Yamazaki; V. sessiliflora Bentham.) as per Flora of China.
Checklist of Nepal only gives Lindernia nummularifolia (D. Don) Wettst. without any synonyms and distribution as 900-2900 m; Himalaya (Kashmir to Sikkim), India, Ceylon, Burma, W. & C. China.
Taxonomic Revision of Lindernia All. (Scrophulariaceae sensu lato) In Taiwan (2012) gives only Lindernia nummulariifolia (D.Don) Wettst., Nat. Pflanzenfam. 4(3b): 80 1891. (syn: Vandellia nummulariifolia D. Don) with distribution as India, Nepal, Burma, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, W. and C. China, Madagascar, Taiwan in wet meadows in south (Pingtung County)
What about Lindernia sessiliflora (Bentham) Wettstein given in Flora of China as it is not mentioned in Craterostigma nummulariifolium (D. Don) Eb. Fisch., Schäferh. & Kai Müll. in Catalogue of Life. Catalogue of life gives this as a syn. of Craterostigma sessiliflorum (Benth.) Y. S. Liang & J. C. Wang with distribution as China (Gansu, Guangxi, Guizhou, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Shaanxi, Sichuan, Yunnan, Zhejiang), Tibet, Myanmar [Burma], Nepal, Thailand, Vietnam, peninsular Malaysia (Melaka), Singapore (I), Java, India, Darjeeling, Sikkim, Sri Lanka, Pakistan (Murree, Rawalpindi), Jammu & Kashmir (Poonch).
Thus, plant in our area may be Craterostigma sessiliflorum (Benth.) Y. S. Liang & J. C. Wang with distribution as China (Gansu, Guangxi, Guizhou, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Shaanxi, Sichuan, Yunnan, Zhejiang), Tibet, Myanmar [Burma], Nepal, Thailand, Vietnam, peninsular Malaysia (Melaka), Singapore (I), Java, India, Darjeeling, Sikkim, Sri Lanka, Pakistan (Murree, Rawalpindi), Jammu & Kashmir (Poonch).
This may be due to some recent taxonomic revisions etc. On searching, I found New combinations in Craterostigma and Torenia (Linderniaceae) from Asia with key to allied species Phytotaxa Vol 247, No 2 (2016) by YI-SHUO LIANG, JENN-CHE WANG (Abstract- Traditionally, Lindernia s.l. Allioni (1766: 178) was the largest genus within Linderniaceae, with about 100 species, including members of Bonnaya Link & Otto (1820: 25), Ilysanthes Rafinesque (1820: 13), and Vandellia Linnaeus (1767: 384) (Pennell 1935, Rahmanzadeh et al. 2005). This concept (Pennell 1935) was adopted by subsequent taxonomists (e.g., Philcox 1968, Tsoong & Ku 1979, Yamazaki 1981, Fischer 1992, Lewis 2000, Liang et al. 2012) until Fischer et al. (2013), based on molecular and morphological evidence, proposed a more restrict circumscription of Lindernia s.str., separated from Bonnaya, Vandellia, Craterostigma Hochstetter (1841: 668), Crepidorhopalon Fischer (1989: 443), Torenia Linnaeus (1753: 619), and the new genus Linderniella Fischer et al. (2013: 227)). But one has to log in to see the details. I guess you are right … but could not get sufficient images for comparison. Flowers of India
I have attached the key to the species provided by the paper Phytotaxa 247 (2): 148–150 (2016), “New combinations in Craterostigma and Torenia (Linderniaceae) from Asia with key to allied species.”
The bottom-line of the paper is,
“Craterostigma sessiliflorum differs from C. nummulariifolium by its creeping habit (vs. erect), sessile flowers (vs. sessile to pedunculate), and pale brown corolla dorsal lip (vs. purplish)”
In this light, Saroj’s plant (and all similar plants posted on eFI) belong to Craterostigma nummulariifolium.
Two observations of what should be Craterostigma sessiliflorum, both from Kerala, are here (although wrongly labeled presently):
1 attachment Thank you … for your clarification. It seems all images on the net are random. That means Nepal does not have Craterostigma sessiliflorum (Benth.) Y.S.Liang & J.C.Wang though
some of the databases showing its distribution in Nepal maybe because of the identification
confusion. Also the latest book by KK shrestha et all also do not have this sp. for Nepal.
The distribution given at various sites should not be taken at face value because a distribution of a locality may get added because it was treated as a synonym of another species. Even when the naming is fixed, the distribution does not get automatically fixed.
The plant with purple upper-lip flowers is found in the Himalayas and also Maharashtra, as the posts on eFI show. However no one has yet posted a plant with brown upper-lip flowers on eFI. So my guess is that it might be confined to Southern Western Ghats and probably China and SE Asia.
The Keralaplants page for Lindernia sessiliflora also mentions a brown upper lip.
I have not seen that sp. yet. POWO and CoL does not give distribution of Craterostigma nummulariifolium (D.Don) Eb.Fisch., Schäferh. & Kai Müll. outside Africa. Actually, POWO is also not 100 % correct, neither are any of the databases. I have seen many discrepancies with POWO for many sps. having distribution in Nepal which are not included in the POWO and some sps.
which are not having distribution in Nepal showing distribution for Nepal.
Likewise, GBIF also has many discrepancies. Images of many sps. are wrongly posted with different ID pages
and I have informed them for corrections. But they replied that it is the responsibility of the person / institution who has uploaded the images.
By the way, Nepal has only one Craterostigma nummulariifolium (D.Don) Eb. Fisch., Schäferh. & Kai Müll. , and not the
Craterostigma sessiliflorum (Benth.) Y.S.Liang & J.C.Wang .(Sofar)
Enclosed Screen shots from the WP and Book by KK shrestha et all.
2 attachments POWO has taken a decision in this regard after following many publications as given the references herein, which are not accessible to us. I cannot say further as I am not an expert. However, this species is included in efloranepal, latest book from Nepal, Government documents.
Kindly let us know the identity.

Thank you, …, for point out and enlighten me, it really differs from lindernia, Lobebia nummularia is entirely different in its fruits. I think this is some other species. Yes …! I tried that too ! Can it be something like Lindernia nummulariifolia (D.Don) Wettst. ? They have collected that also. But here the fruits are entirely different. Will this help ? Yes fruits in … post appear similar to Lindernia nummulariifolia (D.Don) Wettst. as per
