Anaphalis royleana (tentative) ABSEP2017\/09<\/span><\/a> : 4 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (16)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This is perhaps the most common at higher altitudes here<\/span> forming tufts between boulders.<\/span> The overall appearance is grey-green with woolly leaves and stems. The difference between the two surfaces of the leaves is not marked. Flowers, which have narrow pointed white bracts, are larger in size and fewer in numbers<\/span> than the A. contorta<\/i> (tentative).<\/span> The plants are not very tall most reaching about 30cm in height.<\/span><\/div>\n
I am attaching at the end\u00a0four comparative images with the other Anaphalis (A. contorta<\/i>?) too.<\/div>\n
\n
Flora of Pakistan maintains three varieties of the species (var. cana<\/i>, var. royleana<\/i> and var. concolor<\/i>) but Flora of China does not. The species is variable in the width of leaves and that confuses me.<\/div>\n
Again following the same principle of convergence of characteristics mentioned in different sources, our plants come close to A. royleana<\/i>. Please advise.<\/div>\n

Anaphalis contorta (tentative!) ABSEP2017\/08<\/a> : 4 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (9)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Even though I come close to a positive ID of this and the other Anaphalis<\/i> sp. here, I am not very confident that I am being entirely successful. I follow Flowers of the Himalaya<\/i>, Flora Simlensis<\/i>, eFlora of China (and Pakistan), Flora of Chamba<\/i>, Flora of Kullu<\/i>, FOI website and of course our group site to see where all characteristics converge (and the most excellent\u00a0Tibetan Medicinal Plants<\/i> wherever applicable). I find following images alone is deceptive and often leads to more confusion. There is not enough to go by and the IDs are only provisional till experts comment on these. I am hoping that we come closer to an agreement on some of the Anaphalis species here.<\/div>\n
Please bear with me if my conclusions\/approach is not entirely correct. I will be grateful for advice.<\/div>\n
My reasons for this tentative identification:<\/div>\n
1. The leaves are dark green above and woolly white below and hence have good contrast between the two surfaces as indicated by several of the above mentioned sources.
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
2. The narrow leaves have in-rolled margins and auricles at the bases. They are partly decumbent too as mentioned in the above sources.
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
3. Tibetan Medicinal Plants<\/i> mentions that the involucral bracts in this species are covered by the woolly indumentum, I am not entirely sure but please look at the photos and advise.
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
4. Flower clusters are compact with each head measuring about 4mm. Flowers of the Himalaya mentions the clusters to be 1.5cm across while our plants have broader clusters (about 4cm)
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
5. Bracts shiny white, blunt, broad, obtuse, erect in flower. Lower bracts often pale violet.<\/span><\/div>\n
And I am not sure what other Anaphalis<\/i> could this be. No other set of characteristics point to this.<\/div>\n

Yes, …, the first three are from a different plant but I do think that it belongs to the same species. Do you think it is different?

Anaphalis busua<\/i>, but needs confirmation<\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n

Identified as\u00a0Anaphalis margaritacea<\/i>\u00a0as per thread<\/a><\/p>\n


\n

A critical relook at leaf bases, and after having seen and studied specimens from Manali, I believe this and the earlier photos belonged to <\/span>Anaphalis busua<\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

How abt Anaphalis<\/i> sp.<\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
It is Anaphalis<\/i>, but can’t fix species at this time, heads are larger than species I know.<\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
It is Anaphalis busua<\/i><\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
You may be right. I also had that in mind, having collected in Manali, but was apprehensive because of larger heads.<\/div>\n

\nThis one was shot from VOF, Uttrakhand<\/span> last year..was posted during VOF week.. earlier response was Anaphalis contorta<\/i> from … please verify.<\/p>\n


\n

Probably here has been a mix up from Anaphalis contorta<\/i> (7) onwards..sorry for mix up..<\/p>\n


\n<\/div>\n
\n

I somehow have the feeling that it may be Anaphalis busua<\/i> (Buch.-Ham.) DC.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>\u00a0Pl. check with pictures & other threads herein.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Beautiful flowers. Is it succulent?<\/p>\n


\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
could be but the leaves at least the upper ones are so…ooo wrnkled that they look almost skinny like the rosemary leaves.
\ndo you have another pic of leaves?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Does not seem to match with images of <\/span>Pseudognaphalium luteoalbum<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/i><\/b>(\u2261) Helichrysum luteoalbum <\/i>(L.) Rchb.;<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n


\n

It is probably <\/span>Anaphalis contorta<\/i>. However, as there is no scale……..plant material is needed for confirmation. Always, insist everyone to examine the plant under microscope!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

I would go with G. brachyactis<\/i> Gandoger. In both G. jacotiana<\/i> (Fl. Pak) and G. stracheyi<\/i> (link below) colour and indumentum of cauline leaves is different from involucre leaves.<\/p>\n


\n<\/div>\n

I think you meant L. instead of G.

Yes …, L. and not G. Sorry for typo error<\/p>\n
