Please help in letting me know if these are two separate identities: Pupalia lappacea (L.) Juss.
Pupalia lappacea (L.) DC. From my searches, Pupalia lappacea (L.) Juss. is certainly a valid name. Yes without any doubt. Many thanks … Yes … P. lappacea Moq. ex DC is synonym as it is dated 1849 as against 1803 of (L.) Juss. Thank you very very much Gurcharan ji for resolving the query and for the clarification too.
Will go with Pupalia atropurpurea (Lam.) Moq. as synonym of Pupalia lappacea (L.) Juss.
(But sometimes I naively wonder at the science of taxonomy that two plants with different habits get merged as one identity !). Here is the article and you all will know why it is still unresolved. May be we can resolve this, but needs lot of work.
