The seeds are used in griping colic pain in Kalahandi area of Orissa state whereas, the aerial parts possess antinociceptive, anti- inflammatory and diuretic properties. Roots are used as an astringent and cooling remedy. Decoction of leaves and shoots is used as a stimulating wash for ulcers, acting as a good healer of the scarred tissue. A paste of the root is used externally in the treatment of scabies.<\/span> (Source: \u00a0Kirtikar and Basu, 1935 and others).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This is\u00a0common, possibly annual, in ditches or marshes.

Yes, I think the ID is correct.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Thanks for this post. I think \u00a0you need to recheck the ID for this plant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
The Plant List mentions Persicaria decipiens (R.Br.) K.L. Wilson as the accepted name for Polygonum serrulatum Lag.<\/div>\n
Moreover, your photos do not match with the images available on net:<\/div>\n

Missed your feedback yesterday, didn\u2019t receive email. Yes, I have seen the accepted name in The Plant List. But, I have deliberately used the name\/entry in FBI or Bengal Plants or in Botany of Bihar and Orissa for reason I will explain eventually.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\u201cPerianth color is variable and taxonomically less important (atleast in Persicaria)\u201d<\/div>\n
I think I can ignore what FoZ shows or displays. Please note :<\/div>\n

    \n
  1. As per FBI\/BP\/BoBO perianth colour white in Indian plants<\/li>\n
  2. raceme stout short<\/li>\n
  3. leaves subsesiile and glabrous with slightly strigillose (or glabrous) margin<\/li>\n
  4. cillia not longer than ochrea tube<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I agree that it doesn\u2019t look like the one in FoZ, but at the same time neither the <\/span>other uploads in eFI<\/span><\/a>, except one which is not clear, looks like the one in FoZ !!!

      The ID is wrong. A doc can be found on Indian species \u2013\u00a0<\/span>http:\/\/www.cibtech.org\/SRIVASTAVA-FAMILY-INDIA.pdf<\/span><\/a>
      \nThere is no\u00a0<\/span>Polygonum serrulatum<\/i>\u00a0Lagasc. in India, instead it is non Lag., synonym of\u00a0<\/span>Polygonum longisetum<\/i> deBruyn and I am not sure if my plant or those of eFI can be same. <\/span>It is getting very very complicated.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

      \n
      \n

      After all the discussion I think it should be Persicaria longiseta<\/em><\/p>\n
