Kalatope id Al021111:
A small flower by the roadside Location Kalatope, Chamba
Altitude 1400 mts Habit Herb Habitat wild/roadside Height 18 inches Season September-October … looks like Triumfetta rhomboidea The longer than usual flexi-spines on the fruit make me think of Triumfetta annua. I feel it is not T. rhomboidea yes, even i guess T. annua L. I think yes, unlobed leaves, long pedicellate flower (3-6 mm as against only 1 mm in T. rhomboidea) and long spines on fruit with hooked tips all point to T. annua. Attached images are Triumfetta sp. Please ID the plant

Genus & species : Triumfetta sp. .
Habitat: Grows wild on roadside

Attached images are Triumfetta annua L. from Meghalaya I had found this one in an untidy underbush near Mcleodganj. Had I not stopped looking for something else, I would have missed it entirely. The burrs with hooked spikes and leaves suggest Triumfetta annua. I think I will have to wait till the next season for flowers. Can we identify it correctly without flowers? Please advise

Triumfetta ¿ annua ? … Malvaceae ~ Tiliaceae
Dear friends, please validate the species to be T. annua.
Date & time: 02 OCT 2016 Yes, it looks like Triumfetta annua Many thanks … for your thoughts.
There was no fruiting at this time.
But I am quite sure this plant is T. annua.
Since last 3 – 4 years, I have been seeing T. annua in fruiting and always missed flowering. The plant habit has kind of etched in my mind. It is different than the other two (rhomboidea and pentandra) … internode distance is comparatively more than in the other two species, the stem is slender as if reminding of a creeper, the leaves all along are almost of same shape, and not lobed, the upper leaves are quite large compared to the other two.

Triumfetta pilosa – efloraofindia | Google Groups
Plz id this herb: pa21 – 1nov2012: This seems to be Triumfetta species from Tiliaceae…..may be pilosa check it at once. Affirmative. This is Triumfetta pilosa. My photographs of this are available at this link I think more closer to images at Triumfetta annua L. To me too, T. annua.

Altitude:4400 ft.
Date: 16 October 2016 Are the spines on the fruits glabrous? Yes, I guess glabrous! I think following keys at leads me to BSI Flora of India with details & keys (Volume 3- 1993)
Spines does not seem to be glabrous as suggested by …
After going through the following keys, I now feel this to be T. annua :
I agree with you; it is T.annua Thank you … Triumfetta annua L. -It is not a climber. It is species of Triumfetta. May be T.pilosa. Appears close to images at Triumfetta annua L. T. annua to me too. Date: 12 September 2020
Elevation: 1780 m.
Habit: Wild
Could not decide which Triumfetta ?
I think Triumfetta annua L. as per comparative images at Triumfetta Thank you … I guess it is matching!

How many number of stamen? Sorry, I did not have that knowledge at that time. I think you can count from the original images. Pl. tell us whether 5 or 10. I guess it is more than 5 ! I seems to agree with your id based on the following:

http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=110&taxon_id=133837 (Nepal checklist) I think Triumfetta annua L. (Flower buds nearly glabrous in T.annua vs obviously hairy in T.pilosa as per keys in Flora of China)

Or can it be Triumfetta pentandra A.Rich. as per images herein. I am not sure about it. It looks Triumfetta annua L only. I want to know whether the plant shows stamens 10, and the capsule 5- 8 mm Long with glabrous spine than it is T.annua but the photo it is quite interesting due presence of hairs on the apex of sepals. Try to send the material for confirmation. Triumfetta pilosa Roth ???? I think Triumfetta pilosa as per keys & illustrations at

Triumfetta annua from Mussoorie Chakrata road near Kalsi:
Triumfetta annua Linn., Mant. 1:73. 1767. The species is distinct from others in its orange flowers and glabrous uncinate spines on the fruit. Annual herb up to 1 m tall, stem purplish on one side with line of hairs; leaves ovate to ovate-lanceolate, 3-5-veined from base, stipules linear, hirsute; cymes leaf-opposed, usually 3-flowered; flowers orange, 8 mm across, petals slightly smaller than sepals; stamens 10; capsule globose 9-11 mm in diam including spines which are 4-5 mm long glabrous and with hooked tips.
Photographed from near Kalsi along Mussoorie Chakrata road on September 16, 2011 I liked the way Sir ji gives the description So neat. I have to recheck all my Triumfettas. I used the term uncinate initially but when I described the spines at the end I was reminded of persons like you and used hooked, which means the same. I think I will have to learn to be less technical in future. You are perfect with your teaching. Don’t change anything. These terms are stimulus for us to learn. In fact I have an idea of starting something like……. ‘“term of the week” (Was started earlier by … but somehow not supported by others with the same zeal)’ Good idea. I am in the same boat as you … and a bit further behind in terms of botanical definitions terms than you, I welcome the idea.. Good idea … Let us start them again. A pictorial botanary i think, novel and very useful idea. Do we upload pictures/ images in the same/ master thread or separately as we do during regular fortnight? OK … shall we call the thread Botany Nomenclature 101 Indiatreepx College or now you think …your turn to come up with a name yes that too… we should definitely have pictures My question was – should we upload the pictures in one single thread defining the ‘particular term’ so that the very single thread serves as a ready-reckoner with all its variations within the term? If wrong pictures are uploaded in the same thread we would learn instantly where the pictures went wrong.
If the posts are made in separate threads that will be inconvenient for a dictionary for future use as well as for new members. It won’t serve quick glance purpose. Problem with the single thread would be when it would be bulky and Google does not allow any more attachments. And when we have a good collection of these terms, any one of us can compile these on our website with links to appropriate thread. That would be our online dictionary. Yes Sir, there is size concern and there is google policy. That is OK … One thread for one term, with posts by all members who want to contribute/comment. .
