\nNo idea whether it is Sopubia delphinifolia<\/i> or Sopubia trifida<\/i>?<\/p>\n

\n

I think linear calyx lobes and larger corolla suggests S. delphinifolia<\/i><\/p>\n

\n

Calyx teeth are deltoid (not filiform<\/span>) and as long as tube (longer in S. delphinifolia<\/i><\/span>) hence this is S. trifida<\/i>. The flowers are smaller (1 cm) and of uniform pink colour as compared to S. delphinifolia<\/i><\/span>. S. delphinifolia<\/span><\/i><\/span> occurs on dry grasslands.<\/span><\/p>\n

Herb Photographed at Kas, Satara.

Very good close-up.
\nI remember the discussion related to this genus.<\/div>\n

Just to highlight some points here…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Sopubia<\/b><\/i> comes under the group where corolla is not bilabiate; tube enlarges at throat.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Perfect stamens 4<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Calyx ribbed and anthers in pairs 2 celled.<\/span> (Whereas calyx not ribbed; anthers not in pairs, 1 celled in Rhamphicarpa<\/b><\/i>)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Coming to difference at species level<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Calyx teeth filiform, longer than calyx tube … … … …S. delphinifolia<\/i>
\n<\/b><\/span>Calyx teeth deltoid-ovate,equalling calyx tube .. … … <\/span>S. trifida<\/b><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\n

This should be <\/span>Sopubia delphinifolia<\/i><\/span><\/a>\u00a0rather than <\/span>Sopubia trifida<\/i><\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>as per details herein.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Calyx is the key … reflexed long pointed lobes … Parasopubia delphinifolia<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\n

This late in season, corolla becomes smaller, maroon patch in throat is small or absent.<\/span> In Surat, it has become scarce to locate now, (in December) also plants are smaller, less vigorous.<\/p>\n

The description in Micrargeria wightii<\/i><\/span><\/a> states<\/div>\n
“calyx tube 1.5 cm, campanulate, lobes spreading above”<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
The description in\u00a0Sopubia delphinifolia<\/i><\/span><\/a> states<\/div>\n
“calyx 9 mm long, tube ribbed, lobes acuminate, scabrid”<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
\n

I am a bit confused between Micrargia wightii<\/i> and Sopubia delphinifolia<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\n

Parasopubia delphinifolia<\/i> (syn Sopubia delphinifolia<\/i>). No doubt about it.<\/p>\n
