Requesting to please ID this plant captured growing wild in Ooty in November 2013. Is this some Acmella sps?

---

Acmella paniculata I hope

---

Thank you … for the feedback. However, the leaves in the pic posted at FoI look different…

---

The Plant shown on FOI is not A. paniculata. It is A. uliginosa. A. paniculata does not have ray florets

---

Thank you … I take it as Acmella paniculata then….

---

This has a pale white form also

---

Please see the key on our website

White heads mostly belong to A. radicans

---

I think this may be A.calva (syn. S. clava) as per Research Gate publication.
