Did not find distribution in Karnataka.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
Any possibility of\u00a0Anaphalis margaritacea\u00a0<\/i>(L.) Benth. ?? However\u00a0could\u00a0not find distribution in KT.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n

Appears close to images at\u00a0Anaphalis contorta<\/em>\u00a0(D.Don) Hook.f.<\/a>, but I do not find any distribution in the area.<\/p>\n

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

On examining specimens of four species in GBIF, of Anaphalis<\/em> showing distribution in the area as per\u00a0Flora of Peninsular\u00a0India<\/a>, I think it close to\u00a0Anaphalis lawii<\/span><\/a>\u00a0(GBIF<\/a>)<\/p>\n

\n

Looks different from others i.e.\u00a0Anaphalis subdecurrens<\/span><\/a>\u00a0(GBIF<\/a>),\u00a0Anaphalis wightiana<\/span><\/a>\u00a0(GBIF<\/a>) and\u00a0Anaphalis marcescens<\/span><\/a>\u00a0(GBIF<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Really confusing. On further consideration, I think more closer\u00a0to\u00a0<\/span>Anaphalis wightiana<\/span><\/a>\u00a0(<\/span>GBIF<\/a>)\u00a0as per specimen\u00a0<\/span>one<\/a>,\u00a0<\/span>two<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<\/span>three<\/a><\/p>\n

Dear friends,
\nPlease help with the species if the photos give relevant clues.<\/p>\n

\n

Pl. Check comparative images at EFI.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

I think it does not match with any species as per comparative images at <\/span>Anaphalis<\/i>\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

…, please check with <\/span>Anaphalis bournei<\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Thanks very much, …<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
I have a strong feeling that it must be\u00a0Anaphalis lawii<\/i> (Hook.f.) Gamble<\/div>\n
