I am not sure what it is.<\/div>\n
\n

Looks somewhat similar to I. tripetala<\/i>, but has longer and less curved spur.<\/p>\n


\n<\/div>\n
\n
Feedback from another thread<\/span><\/a>:
\nIn my opinion, neither this specimen by … nor the specimen by … from Mizoram are <\/span>Impatiens tripetala<\/i>. I have attached the description from Flora of British India, and underlined the portion describing the lip and spur. The spur cannot be called short in any of the two specimens. I have also attached the picture of lectotype of <\/span>Impatiens tripetala<\/i> from Phytotaxa 288 (2): 193\u2013196 (2016). Neither of the two specimens appear close to it.<\/span><\/div>\n

As this plant is with alternate leaves it id not match I. tripetala<\/i>, but needs study<\/p>\n

Thanks, … Pl. check comparative images at Impatiens<\/i><\/span><\/a><\/div>\n

Any close ups?<\/p>\n


\n
To me appears to be similar to your earlier posts at Impatiens racemulosa<\/i> Wall. ex Hook. f. & Thomson<\/span><\/a>
\nPl. confirm.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n
Again, I don’t think it is I. racemulosa<\/i> – flowers are born in fascicles, shape of upper lateral petal is different.<\/div>\n
I don’t see enough details to be sure what it is. More detailed pictures of flower parts could help…<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

just returned from a lovely trip to the north Bengal hills and forests. Five of us (Ruma Chakraborty, Indraneel Chatterjee, Joy Goswami and Shampa Goswami) visited Buxa Tiger Reserve-Chilapata Forests and Jaldapara WLS, and seen lots of wildlife, wild plants and birds.<\/div>\n
Enjoyed bathing in Jainty river and hill streams at Buxa, the elephant ride thru dense forest at Jaldapara was exciting, the butterflies of
\nthe hills were awesome….and the rhinos of forests simply amazing…the hills were clothed with wild flora….got spectacular views of the buxa hills on moonlit Purnima nights….
\nsharing images of wild flowers taken in the Buxa hills near Tashigaon (2000 feet).<\/span><\/div>\n
plz help with the IDs.<\/div>\n

Obviously some species of Impatiens possibly the Common Balsam [Impatiens balsamia<\/i>].<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n

Thanks a lot for the ID… but this plant doesnt bear any resemblance to Balsam. plz identify the species…its some kind of hills species…never seen it in the plains<\/p>\n

This could be Impatiens racemulosa<\/i><\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n
I don’t think this one is I. racemulosa<\/i>.<\/div>\n
You can compare your plant with pictures and description in recent paper:<\/div>\n
Verma D., Lavania S., Gogoi R. 2016. Recollection and lectotypification of Impatiens racemulosa Wall. ex Hook.f. & Thomson (Balsaminaceae). Webbia 71,1:1-4.
\nI. racemulosa<\/i> is regarded as endemic species, known only from Meghalaya, it has completely glabrous flowers, very small upper lateral petal, more narrow lower sepal, and racemose inflorescence<\/span><\/div>\n

\n

General shape of flower and type of inflorescence is characteristic for I. tripetala<\/i>. Color is pale, but almost every species has sometimes pale forms.<\/p>\n

I agree – this could be pale form of I. tripetala<\/i>. Flowers are born in fascicles from leaf axils.<\/p>\n
