… Thelepaepale ixiocephala<\/i> (Benth.) Bremek. (basionym: Strobilanthes ixiocephala<\/i> Benth. OR is it Strobilanthes ixiocephalus<\/i> ?)
\n… commonly known as: sky blue karvy \u2022 Marathi<\/b>: \u092c\u093f\u091f \u0915\u093e\u0930\u0935\u0940 bit karvi, \u092a\u093e\u0924\u0930\u0940 patri, \u0935\u093e\u092f\u091f\u0940 waiti \u2022 Kannada<\/b>: \u0caa\u0cbf\u0ca0 \u0c95\u0cbe\u0cb0\u0cb5\u0cc0 pit-karvi \u2022 Konkani<\/b>: \u092a\u093f\u091f \u0915\u093e\u0930\u0935\u0940 pit karvi
\nEndemic to Western Ghats of India<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

I agree with …, this is Thelepaepale ixiocephala<\/i> <\/span>(Benth.) Bremek. Last time I have seen this flowering in Kudremukh National Park <\/span>in September- October 2003. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

May be the attached paper would be helpful for many of us<\/p>\n

\n

sorry but its confusing to me,,, ya surely Acanthaceae<\/i> and some Strobilanthus<\/i> species, but i do not think Thelepaepale ixiocephala<\/i>.. i may be wrong or need clear flower photo.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

i think, … has mixed collection of species and photos of leaves are surely not of Thelepaepale ixiocephala<\/i><\/span>.. i request him to go through his collection of photos once again and name it correctly..<\/p>\n

\n

Immense thanks\u00a0… for pointing to the error in labeling photos of July 25, 2009 as Thelepaepale ixiocephala<\/i> … will label them appropriately.<\/p>\n

\n

…, if you can post your photos of Thelepaepale ixiocephala<\/i>, than it would be of great help..<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Have encountered Thelepaepale ixiocephala<\/i> on at least 2 occasions while on field trips with Dr. Almeida [when he was a lot fitter] who used to refer to this plant as “the small flower with the big name”.<\/p>\n

\n

At that time unfortunately, we did not have the luxury of digital technology and hence have only pressed specimen[s] as records. Could send photographs of it \/ them if it would be of any help.<\/p>\n

\n

For me It seems to be Strobilanthes ixiocephalous<\/i>.
\nI remember I had seen white flowered plants near Castle rock (with CES, IISc team about 6 years back )<\/p>\n

Affirmative. Now called Thelepaepale ixiocephala<\/i>. My photographs of this are available at this link :
\nGoogle Groups<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\n
\n

Now the genus Strobilanthus<\/i> is considered as a single genus rejecting all subdivision by Bremekamp (1944). So the correct name is Strobilanthes ixiocephalus<\/i> Benth.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yes, but a slight variation, “vaana neelakkurinji” \u0bb5\u0bbe\u0ba9 \u0ba8\u0bc0\u0bb2\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bb1\u0bbf\u0b9e\u0bcd\u0b9a\u0bbf (sky blue karvi) would work.
\nAnother option can be “venneelakkurinji” \u0bb5\u0bc6\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0ba8\u0bc0\u0bb2\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bb1\u0bbf\u0b9e\u0bcd\u0b9a\u0bbf meaning “bale blue or whitish blue karvi”.<\/span><\/div>\n

Malayalam name for Strobilanthes ixiocephala Benth.<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Please check if name for\u00a0Strobilanthes ixiocephala<\/i>\u00a0Benth. can be easily coined.
\nCoined English name for this species is\u00a0sky blue karvy<\/b>.
\nWe have a name:\u00a0\u0d28\u0d40\u0d32\u0d15\u0d4d\u0d15\u0d41\u0d31\u0d3f\u0d1e\u0d4d\u0d1e\u0d3f neelakurinji<\/b>\u00a0for\u00a0Strobilanthes kunthiana<\/i>\u00a0(Nees) T.Anderson ex Benth.
\nWould a name\u00a0\u0d06\u0d15\u0d3e\u0d36 \u0d28\u0d40\u0d32\u0d15\u0d4d\u0d15\u0d41\u0d31\u0d3f\u0d1e\u0d4d\u0d1e\u0d3f aaksha neelakurinji<\/b>\u00a0make sense as a name ?
\nPlease ignore my request if it is cumbersome.<\/p>\n
\n

OR rather\u00a0\u0d06\u0d15\u0d3e\u0d36\u0d28\u0d40\u0d32 \u0d15\u0d41\u0d31\u0d3f\u0d1e\u0d4d\u0d1e\u0d3f aakshaneela kurinji<\/b>\u00a0… this could be the correct<\/p>\n

\n

or perhaps this option is preferred\u00a0\u0d07\u0d33\u0d02\u0d28\u0d40\u0d32 \u0d15\u0d41\u0d31\u0d3f\u0d1e\u0d4d\u0d1e\u0d3f ilamneela kurinji<\/b> meaning pale blue karvi<\/p>\n

\n

\u0d07\u0d33\u0d02\u0d28\u0d40\u0d32 \u0d15\u0d41\u0d31\u0d3f\u0d1e\u0d4d\u0d1e\u0d3f ilamneela kurinji is good, but single\u00a0\u0d28\u0d40\u0d32\u0d15\u0d4d\u0d15\u0d41\u0d31\u0d3f\u0d1e\u0d4d\u0d1e\u0d3f neelakurinji<\/b>\u00a0is fair,<\/p>\n

\n

\u0d28\u0d40\u0d32\u0d15\u0d4d\u0d15\u0d41\u0d31\u0d3f\u0d1e\u0d4d\u0d1e\u0d3f neelakurinji =\u00a0blue karvi<\/b>, and it is very popular for\u00a0Strobilanthes kunthiana<\/i>\u00a0(Nees) T.Anderson ex Benth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Since\u00a0Strobilanthes ixiocephala<\/i>\u00a0Benth.is not exactly blue, but is more of white with tinge of blue, I think we make use of name that means either\u00a0sky blue karvi\u00a0<\/b>OR\u00a0pale blue.karvi<\/b>.<\/div>\n
Thus if\u00a0\u0d07\u0d33\u0d02\u0d28\u0d40\u0d32 \u0d15\u0d41\u0d31\u0d3f\u0d1e\u0d4d\u0d1e\u0d3f ilamneela kurinji<\/b>\u00a0is good, we will rather use it.<\/div>\n
\n

Once again, thank you very much for help with coining name for\u00a0Strobilanthes ixiocephala<\/i>\u00a0Benth.<\/p>\n
