identification no 171111sn2:<\/a>
\nThis has been tentatively identified as Justicia<\/i> sp.. Generally Justicia procumbens<\/i> are pink, though I found a few white sp. on the net. Could this be Justicia procumbens<\/i> or otherwise. Kindly validate. Taken at Mulshi, Pune<\/span> in Sept.<\/p>\n

White flowered forms are quite common among the population. So better consider it as a variant<\/span><\/p>\n

Species of Justicia<\/i>, probably J. simplex<\/i>.<\/p>\n


\n

I have labelled this species as Justicia<\/i> procumbens<\/i> L.<\/span><\/a>. in my collection. Rostellularia<\/span><\/i> procumbens<\/i> Nees <\/span>may be a synonym [the plant list]
\nThis genera is a taxonomic minefield and therefore additional views are welcome.
\nI will add that in the field it’s difficult to make out whether the calyx is 4 or 5 partite due to reasons I will not go into here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
