Family: Amaranthaceae.
(Earlier this was discussed and it was suggested that this could be Achyranthes bidentata). Date/Time: 9th Nov./ 10:40AM Location: Mizoram
Habitat: Wild
Plant Habit: Herb
Leaves: Opposite, rhomboid with short petioles, nerves prominent around 7 pairs… May be some Pupalia species. I think … may be right. I think this is Cyathula, possibly Cyathula prostrata (L) Bl. Bijdr., as in –
Me too would think of this plant being some species of Cyathula, and just as … thought, most probably C. prostrata.
Not sure because – not seen yet any species of Pupalia. I am yet to see any Cyathula and one of the synonyms of Cyathula prostrata, given in the F. B. I., is Pupalia prostrata Mart.!
I think :-
Thanks … for further elaborating the aspects of Cyathula and Pupalia.
I am not familiar with species of either; both genera seem to be close enough to be synonymous in some of their species. Hopefully the ID gets resolved. Me too …, don’t understand the difference; and it’s hairline :-
stamens with interposed staminodes —— Cyathula
stamens without staminodes —— Pupalia

Pupalia lappacea (L.) Juss.
Sorry, …, Check again seems not, Cythula prostrata only, … is on the right path i think.

https://www.flowersofindia.ProstratePastureweed.html What you sent reference is correct, But your post is Cyathula only, You can go throw this.
Habit up 1.5 m high., erect, Inflorescence dense spike and has spiny bristles……..Pupalia
Habit up to 75 cm long decumbent, some times prostrate, Inflorescence loose spike, haven’t spiny bristles………Cythula Thank you very very much … for pointing to the error. Indeed it is Cyathula prostrata – I always mistake this one for Pupalia. And despite it, I did not bother to match plants in my collection. Sheer haste and over-confidence !!!

Actually is it lal apamarg/ red apamarg? Sir, it has spiked inflorescence like Achyranthes/ Cyathula.
