Please check the collage, left is mine and right is of efloraofindia. I am observing some difference in petals opening and stigma, it is visible as fork, no one individual flower inthe right having the same petals of left. I also found plants having flowers in right image, but accidentally not be documented because I also think as your way. Expecting your valuable response in this regard.
Yes. Looks different. Thank you for your response. I think it is Synotis species. 1 image. Yes, but there is no match according to the comparative images at
https://efloraofindia.com/efi/synotis/ Maybe some other unlisted species.
Image 1 from … and remaining 3 images from efi. The images shared by you showed that my flower is in premature stage, if my observation is correct, then my plant is Synotis rufinervis. have you taken photographs of leaves from both surfaces? Leaves are white on the lower side in Synotis rufinervis. They are comparatively larger in size than the size mentioned by you. Thank you very much for sharing your observations. Sorry, I am not captured leaf lower side, because it needs more time and some times hard. This plant is growing obliquely in crevice of the rubble stone masonry wall (this may be chances to small leaf size), so closeup clicking was very hard, and also didn’t found any plants like this. I am providing an enlarged image of lower side of leaf. ventral surface of leaf is visible in this photograph. So I think, it has been rightly identified. Thank you very much for ID my plant.
Also please check if the pollen and stigma (visible as not fork form) is in immature stage of blooming or any unusuality.
1 image. Please compare the first set of tepals parity in flower stalk in the collage, left is yours, and right is mine, please confirm it is usually. Stigma is bifid in all members of Asteraceae. . References: |
