Gentiana pedicellata<\/i> has smaller flowers (7-8mm across), which are usually deeper blue than those of\u00a0G. argentea <\/i>and G. capitata<\/i>. The throat lines are dark blue. Plicae are closer in size to the petals giving a more round appearance to the flower. The plants now are closer to the ground (about 2cm high), much branched and hardly show the stems. Sepals are out-curved, edged in black or dark purple, and reach about half-way up the corolla tube. The basal leaves are longer and fall off early.<\/span> I am quoting Polunin and Stainton’s description to support my identification;<\/div>\n
750-3800m. Cultivated areas, shrubberies; common in Nepal on heavily grazed ground.<\/span><\/div>\n
Jan.\u2013Jun.
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
A small much-branched annual herb in lax form, with tiny pale blue flowers at the ends of terminal and lateral branches. Flowers 6-8mm long, with shallow triangular lobes with fine points and with lobules a little shorter and broader; calyx about half as long as corolla, with out-curved lobes. Leaves lanceolate 5-10mm, the basal leaves when present much longer and broader; stems branched above, to 8cm but often much shorter.<\/span><\/div>\n
This description matched our plants closely. Our plants are short and that could either be because of the heavily-grazed slope or the timing of flowering. In better, undisturbed conditions, plants may grow taller. I will keep a lookout for that.<\/div>\n
Please correct me if I am wrong. I would also love to hear from Saroj Kasaju ji to know if this plant is in flower in his location in Nepal and whether it has similar characteristics.<\/div>\n

This is same as mine from Chopta and Kedarnath<\/span> (from Indian Flora upload). Have to decide between G. pedicellata<\/i> (G. quadrifaria) and\u00a0Gentiana<\/i>\u00a0membranulifera<\/i>\u00a0T.N.Ho<\/a>, as G. marginata<\/i> seems to be an illegitimate name, and alternate name Gentianodes eumarginata<\/i> proposed in eFl of Pak is synonym of G. membranulifera<\/i>..<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n

Any one having access to Gentianaceae of India, BSI publication can help, May be … can help in this direction.<\/p>\n

\n

What about Gentiana argentea..??
\nPlease have a look on <\/span>this<\/span><\/a>…..<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n

In Gentiana argentea<\/b><\/i> plicae are acuminate and lobes longer and long acuminate.
\n<\/span>If we look third image in FOI, it is much different than first two and resembling our one. I would go for <\/span>G. pedicellata<\/b> the correct identity of Indian <\/span>G. quadrifaria<\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

I think, this is Gentiana pedicellata<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\n

Only three species of Gentiana<\/i> have been reported to occur in Sirmaur district of H.P.
\nIt is nice to know that you have clicked all the three within 4 days of Plant Hunting Tour to Churdhar<\/p>\n

\n

It should be Gentiana argentea<\/i><\/p>\n

\n

Thank you very much sir. Doesn’t this plant match very well with G. pedicellata <\/i>as per the key?<\/p>\n

\nThis one was shot during may 2012 during our recent trip to Chakrata region,<\/span> was earlier uploaded and identified by … as G. ornata<\/i>, I hope the identity is resolved…<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Size of flower and altitude of place should help. G. ornata<\/i> usually occurs above 3300 m alt, and flowers are 25-30 mm long.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Yes Sir altitude was more than 3200 mt but flower size was bit less 15-20 mm<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

15-20 mm is too small for <\/span>G. coronata<\/i>, let us explore other options.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Gentiana..?? Kalatope Al170311a<\/span><\/a>:
\nThe last Gentiana<\/i> I had put up was G. depressa<\/i>.. this one looks almost

Could this be G.pedicellata<\/i>???? Only a wild guess..!!! <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Perhaps this photo should help…<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Its not G. pedicellata<\/i>.. though it looked alike from the top..<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n

welll… then back to square one… G. depressa<\/i> (according to my FOH) is supposed to have solitary flowers…
\nso I thought it might be something different… but…<\/p>\n

\n

Even I was not comfortable with G. pedicellata<\/i> which is a delicate and longer plant. I would suggest G. carinata<\/i>, if flowers are shorter than 1.5 cm.<\/p>\n

\n

It does seem so, sir…<\/p>\n

\n

G. carinata<\/i>? I thought it was darker… but of course in this one too the flower shuts itself… if it is in the shadows.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

I think, this is Gentiana decemfida<\/i> (Syn. Gentiana aprica<\/i>).<\/p>\n

Thanks …, in that sense my original ID was correct, because FBI considered G. pedicellata<\/em> as synonym of G. quadrifaria<\/em> Blume and Flora of Pakistan considers G. quadrifaria<\/em> of FBI (not Blume) as synonym of G. pedicellata<\/em> and flowers are in fascicles (not solitary) and plant much more lax in G. decemfida<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
