2 images.
A very tiny plant with yellow flowers growing in the grass.

On searching, it seems to be Sida cuneifolia complex.


Yes, it’s Sida only


If we follow, Catalogue of LifeSida cuneifolia Roxb. is a syn. of Sida schimperiana Hochst. ex A. Rich.
But POWO, treats both of them as separate as per Sida cuneifolia Roxb. (distribution only in India) and Sida schimperiana Hochst. ex A. Rich.  (distribution only in Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda).

If we follow them separately, then Sida schimperiana Hochst. ex A. Rich. in FOI has to be Sida cuneifolia

…, May pl. look into and correct the FOI page.
