Tragia involucrata<\/i> L.<\/p>\n


\n

Thank you very very much … for quickly validating the Tragia<\/i> IDs of my sightings.
\nAny feature seen in this upload that differentiates it from the other three, which points to\u00a0T. involucrata<\/i> ?
\nAll sightings are from the same area.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n

If you find that the leaves are acute, obtuse, rounded or subtruncate at base, then it is <\/span>T. involucrata<\/span> <\/i>or else if leaves are cordate at base, then it will be <\/span>T. praetervisa.<\/span> <\/i>There are a few closely related species such as T. hispida, T. montana, T. involucrata, T. bicolor and T. praetervisa <\/i>which have narrow specific differences from each another.<\/p>\n


\n

Thank you very very much …, for this clarification.<\/p>\n


\n

Probably nobody dares to touch a Tragia <\/i>for the stinging hairs. I had to digest a number of bites when I worked out the genus!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
