Identification required for this Asteraceae sp.from Ganderbal Kashmir: 3 high res. images.


To me it appears to be some Aster species. Is there any yellow flowered one in your area?


It resembles with Pulicaria dysenterica


Yes, possible.
Images at Pulicaria dysenterica (L.) Gaertn. from plains look a bit different.
However, it seems to match as per POWO specimen.

Asteraceae Fortnight Part I-Radiate Heads: Pulicaria dysenterica from Panipat- NS 47 : Attachments (10). 3 posts by 2 authors.
This one was shot from around Panipat… I know this as Pulicaria dysenterica.. hope to get validating/ correcting remarks…


Yes … I also got it from Herbal garden in Delhi.


After going through … images at Identification required for this Asteraceae sp.from Ganderbal Kashmir and  POWO specimen, I am having doubts about its id.
BSI gives its distribution in the West Himalayas.
Pl. check.


ID is correct for me

I don’t think there should be any doubt. The plant is grown in Herbal Garden.


Kashmir is in Western Himalayas only.


It does not match with the specimens, looks too much hairy and bracteoles and phyllaries also look different.

Pulicaria for validation from Panipat-2012: No images seen now.
This one was shot from Yamuna river side on April 3, 2012, common otherwise also these days. I hope this one is Pulicaria dysenterica (L.) Bernh., Syst. Verz. 153. 1800; Inula dysenterica Linn., Sp. Pl. 2:882. 1753.
Please validate/correct….


Validation required….if this one is Pulicaria dysenterica


I think yes. Very good photographs
