Reply from another thread by …: correction of Dicliptera cuneata posted by me<\/span><\/a>:
\nDicliptera<\/i> posted by me is not D.cuneata<\/i>, wrongly identified.
\nit is Dicliptera beddomei<\/i>– reasons branches slender, striate, flowers in trichotomous cymes on lax panicles branches hairy, bracts narrow and linear flowering bracts linear
\nthe correction may be carried – you please observe there is 3 branches from each axil and see the difference with present specimen again sending the images.<\/span><\/p>\n
