Small herb for ID-GSMAY2016/08 : 5 posts by 4 authorsAttachments (2)

Kindly help with the ID of this small herb photographed from Almora, Uttarakhand on April 15, 2012


A rare catch Sir !
It is Kohautia gracilis (Wall.) DC. of Rubiaceae.
In efloraofindia the post identified as K.gracilis is a wrong ID; it must be a species in Campanulaceae:
The correctly identified K.gracilis can be seen in:

Thanks … for this ID.
