Asteraceae herb for Identification : AVD10122017:01<\/a> : 13 posts by 4 authors. Attachments (6)
\n<\/span>I need help in identifying the <\/span>Asteraceae<\/i> herb<\/span> in images attached herewith. The detailed description is as follows:
\n<\/span>A stout herb 1 to 2 meter high, stem 5 angled, deeply grooved, star shaped in cross-section, leaves alternate, sessile, linear ob-lanceolate, cuneate, sharply dentate, flower heads in corymbs, peduncles bracteolate, florets lavender in colour. Involucral bracts striated with green and white lines.
\n<\/span>Am unable to place it in appropriate genus. Would kindly request for help.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Closure to\u00a0Emilia sps<\/i>.<\/p>\n


\n

Thank you for suggesting possible id. But the involucral bracts are completely different from Emilia<\/i>.
\nThe possible id is Goniocaulon glabrum<\/i>.<\/p>\n


\n

i have also come across same plant and i am of the opinion that it is Vernonia<\/i> spp but not sure about spp
\ni will post my images soon\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Pl. check with
\n
\/species\/a—l\/ar\/asteraceae\/cichorioideae\/vernonieae\/cyanthillium-cinereum<\/span><\/a>
\nIt is a highly variable species.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

The species is quite different from the link sent by you. The distinctly grooved angular stem, shorter peduncle, and most importantly paleaceous pappus are not seen in the linked images.
\nPlease check the following link. The herbarium specimen shows all features similar to my plant specimen.

Adding few more images of flower head, floret and achene.
\nThis is to aid id confirmation.

…\u00a0as … pointed out this spp is highly variable, flower shape of plants growing in crowded area have different shape and other have different, unfortunately my computer is having some problems so i will post my images afterwards<\/p>\n


\n
Thanks, …, for the new addition.<\/div>\n

\n

To me it looks more like a thistle than an aster.<\/p>\n


\n

I do not think so.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

By aster I meant the well known flower Aster and not a member of the asteraceae family.
\nCalling a member of <\/span>cruciferaceae<\/em> a crucifer is not confusing as there is no flower\u00a0 called crucifer but calling a member of <\/span>asteraceae<\/em> an Aster is perhaps confusing. At least I was confused when I wrote the comment.
\n<\/span>Thanks for drawing my attention to the same. More likely a <\/span>Vernonia<\/em> sp.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
