Bothriospermum tenellum (Boraginaceae) from Uttarakhand_DSR_March_05<\/a> : 2 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (3)<\/font> <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

This tiny, short-lived, spring annual herb grows here<\/font> in Pantnagar (Uttarakhand)<\/font> along roads and in lawns.<\/font> <\/font><\/div>\n
But due to very small size and white flowers (similar to Stellaria media<\/i> with which it often shares the habitat) it escapes notice.<\/font><\/div>\n
More importantly Bothriospermum tenellum<\/i> (Hornem.) Fisch.& C.A.Mey. [Boraginaceae<\/i>] is not represented in eFI. <\/p>\n
