Zingiber neesanum (J.Graham) Ramamoorthy submission AS11 July21:
There is one another closely related recently described species Z. anamalayanum Sujanapal & Sasidh. 2010 but floral features doesn’t look matching with this species (except leaves) which itself is very close to Z. neesanum. Please see attached floral dissection plate.
I guess correct ID !
POWO
This is more close to Zingiber anamalayanum.
Thanks for confirmation, earlier i had many doubts and questions regarding the suggested identity but all thanks to recently published paper in Taxon entitled “Fixing stray traditions in gingers: The identity and nomenclatural history of Zingiber neesanum and other entwined names – Patil – – TAXON – Wiley Online Library” Sadly, this interesting paper is not freely accessible so i will post its brief summary and conclusion shortly in another post, Garg ji we need to place all the Zingiber neesanum having white flowers with purplish streaked labellum under page Zingiber anamalayanum Sujanapal & Sasidh while the true Zingiber neesanum (J.Graham) Ramamoorthy is cadmium yellow flowered Zingiber endemic to Northern Western Ghats (so far known from 8 districts of Maharashtra) what we presently have on our site under name Zingiber diwakarianum R.Kr.Singh (now considered a new heterotypic synonym of Z.neesanum).
