Neanotis montholonii
Observed these herbs at many places near Bhimashankar. Maharashtra. Please validate. efi page on Neanotis montholonii It looks like Neanotis lancifolia as in the thread:s this Neanotis montholonii ? at efi page Neanotis lancifolia    These lovely tiny ground flowers of Neanotis montholoni can be seen in the open area at the base of Kanheri Caves in Sanjay Gandhi National Park, Mumbai.
We did not see these gregarious herbs last year so their seeds must have been dormant until now! Just one of the smaller enigmas of our forests, I suppose! Lovely pictures, … Here is a link for details of Tanoti, Neanotis montholonii: I have also observed these in large numbers on Vetal Tekdi,Pune for last few days. Appears more closer to images at Neanotis lancifolia (Hook.f.) W.H.Lewis rather than those at Neanotis montholonii (Hook.f.) W.H.Lewis
It is interesting to observe the changing face of flora in Sanjay Gandhi National Park, Mumbai. Last month a small open area below Kanheri Caves was covered by lovely blue flowers of Neanotis montholoni amidst growing spikes of Silver Spiked Cockscomb and the much smaller Common Small Justicia flowers. Yesterday almost the entire area has erupted with the taller plants of the gregarious Common Balsam, Impatiens balsamina. I did not see any N.montholoni flowers.
Isaac Kehimkar calls it succession of flowers. If conditions for one species is ideal then that species takes over and rapidly spreads itself smothering other species.
Your observation at SGNP may be termed as ‘succession‘. Appears more closer to images at Neanotis lancifolia (Hook.f.) W.H.Lewis rather than those at Neanotis montholonii (Hook.f.) W.H.Lewis

Satara, Oct 2014 :: Requesting ID validation :: ARKNOV-07 : 3 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (8). efi page on Neanotis lancifolia As far as I believe N.lancifolia is a taller plant 0.5 to 1 m tall. whereas N.montholini is a smaller plant 10 -20 cm high. Another small herb N.latifolia is also 15-30cm high. with purplish to reddish stem.
For deeper study the characters of capsule dehiscing whether loculicidally or septicidally and other details is necessary. Thanks … for the feedback.. These flowers are similar to the ones identified as Neanotis lancifolia in my recent post.
They look similar and have been captured in the same area, requested to please validate. Saw this tiny flowers at Kas in Satara. MH in October 2019.
Are they some Neanotis species?
Requested to please provide ID. Neanotis lancifolia (Hook.f.) W.H.Lewis as per comparative images at Neanotis
