While browsing the net I came across many such asteraceae which are distributed in our country, yet I couldn’t find them in the “Flora of British India”. It is quite possible they are hidden under different names. Besides, FBI also listed some doubtful spp at the endnotes of each section.
Attached pictures are screenshots of KEW collection.
recently this article was published as part of my Phd research. I hope this will clear the misunderstanding on Blumea bovei in India.
