Clarke\u00a0<\/em>; erect, leaves sessile broadly lanceolate softly villous, racemes dense bracteate, nutlets apparently basally attached, carpophore depressed hardly convex.<\/span> Echinospermum sericeum<\/em>, Benth, in Royle Ill. 306 ; DC. Prodr. x. 142.<\/p>\n

ALPINE WESTERN HIMALAYA ; from Kashmir to Gurwhal, alt. 13-15,000 ft. ; Royle, Lance, Jaeschke, &c.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stems 3-7 in., solitary or few, erect, divided at the apex. Leaves 2\/3 by 1\/5 in., acute, lower densely tufted, upper distant. Racemes in fruit 1.1\/2 in. ; pedicels 0-1\/8 in. ; bracts 1\/8 in. Calyx-lobes in fruit 1\/8 in., narrowly oblong. Flowers 1\/4 in. diam, and upwards, blue, purpurescent. Nutlets 1\/12 in., membranous, glabrous ; circular back within the margin minutely hairy.\u2014Closely allied to E. villosum, in which the margins of the nutlets carry broad-based flattened lanceolate ciliate-serrate teeth. In the typical Eritrichiums the scar of the nutlets is sub-punctiform at the apex of a depressed cone on the inner lower face<\/span> ; in E. villosum<\/em>, DC. Prodr. x. 126 (Myosotis villosa<\/em>, Ledeb. Ic. Fl. Ross. t. 215), this cone is less depressed ; in E. basifixum<\/em> it is elongate still more, so that the nutlets are attached apparently basally, nearly as in Lithospermeoe.<\/p>\n

Both this and other plant identified as <\/span>P. moltkoides<\/i> need to be relooked, as typical <\/span>Pseudomertensia<\/i> should have erect corolla lobes (and not spreading).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

looking some primula<\/i> spp. to me<\/p>\n

\n

Not Primula<\/i>, member of Boraginaceae<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\n

Yes Sir Ji is correct this is indeed from Boraginaceae
\n<\/i>Possibly <\/span>Pseudomertensia moltkioides<\/i><\/span> <\/i>(Royle ex Benth.) Kazmi in J. Arn. Arb. 51(3): 380. 1970<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n
I have the attached plant under the name Pseudomertensia moltkioides. <\/i><\/span>Kindly confirm if both the species are same or different<\/span>.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n

Yes this is <\/span>Pseudomertensia moltkioides <\/i> I think you posted this plant previously which I tried to identify.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n

Yes this second photograph is more likely P. moltkioides<\/i>. The corolla tube is definetly more than twice as long as Calyx. For specific identity of first plant, close up of flower or side view of flower to expose length of corolla tube is necessary.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/a>\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/100_8333.JPG\"<\/a>
\nThe length of corolla tube in the first species is shorter as compared to second one. Attaching another side view of plant for further identification clues.<\/p>\n
\n

Calyx is not clearly visible, but P. trollii<\/i> could be considered.<\/p>\n

\n

Some earlier relevant feedback from another thread efi thread<\/span><\/a>: \u201cBoth this and other plant identified as P. moltkoides <\/i>need to be relooked, as typical Pseudomertensia<\/i> should have erect corolla lobes (and not spreading).<\/p>\n
