Fragaria vesca from Kashmir<\/a>:

–\u00a0Nice catch of the alpine strawberry <\/b><\/p>\n

\n

– Fruits are delicious and eaten raw.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

– no idea what fragaria vesca<\/i> is but i recognise this from my childhood in switzerland and it surely is the flower of a woodland strawberry<\/b> ! <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

– You are absolutely right. A very common plant on mountain slopes of temperate and subalpine regions.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

– i am not sure i will ever travel again to collect a photo of such a lovely plant though… let alone pluck the strawberry itself — every emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere is associated with loss of species as they cannot move fast enough to keep up with increased warming — one is simply in awe of the immense diversity of species as it evolved over the millenia years — we were truely a lucky generation to have the opportunity to witness this magnificence. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

– This indeed Fragaria vesca<\/i> woodland strawberry !! I have also seen them in eastern himalayas<\/p>\n

\n

– referring to “separable from high altitude species F. nubicola<\/i> in its spreading pubescence and elongated fruit”– \u00a0there were definitely two distinct types even in the low parts of switz where i remember them from – it must be F. vesca<\/i> then that has the beautiful conical fruit, sweeter than the elongated one — and the birds and snails always quick to get to them – the elongated ones always seemed a bit harder and left alone by the competition — probably because they never seemed to be really ripe.
\nbut i do not have any photos of either \ud83d\ude42 really amazing that these alpine plants are found in all places where conditions are similar. well. i guess natural and a matter of fact for botanists. wonderful to think about for us civilians. \ud83d\ude42 and even more
\nwonderful still for anyone who can find and eat one ! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

On second thought, I think it is F. vesca<\/i> as scapes are much longer than leaves.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Fragaria vesca<\/i>– Wild strawberry<\/b>– a delicious wild fruit.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n

There\u00a0was lot of discussions recently whether it should be Fragaria vesca<\/i> <\/span>or Fragaria nubicola<\/i> as per thread<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

In addition to the species listed in eFI at least one more species is distributed in HP (provided GRIN<\/a> is correct) – <\/span>\u00a0(TPL thinks unresolved).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
This species is unlikely to be F. daltoniana<\/i>\u00a0(epicalyx is not lobed at apex; leaflets should be petiolulate; stamens not numerous).<\/div>\n
I fail to find anything relating to F. bucharica<\/span><\/a>.<\/i> It should be similar to F. rubicola<\/i>.
\nIt is practically impossible for me (who have never seen any member of the genus) to guess\/select one from <\/span>vesca<\/i>\u00a0and <\/span>rubicola<\/i>. Inflorescence shows presence of bracts (pic2) – a feature of <\/span>F. vesca<\/i>–\u00a0<\/span>http:\/\/efloras.org\/object_page.aspx?object_id=49109&flora_id=2<\/span><\/a>. I do not know if the <\/span>rubicola<\/i>\u00a0also features those bracts. Neither do I know flower size. Please check flower size of <\/span>vesca<\/i>\u00a0at –\u00a0<\/span>http:\/\/www.ars-grin.gov\/npgs\/images\/cor\/fragaria\/2011\/April\/<\/span><\/a>\u00a0(there are other species as well).<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

I would like to add that bracts are also present in F. bucharica<\/i>\u00a0(possibly also in F. rubicola<\/i>) as in F. vesca<\/i>. So, please first check F. vesca<\/i>\u00a0is present in wild or in escape in HP (or other state). If present it maybe the same else it has two more probability as the discussion so far.<\/p>\n

very nice. now wait for the berries to develope.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
what pollinates these?<\/div>\n
\n

I will go again next weekend. These are not nearby where I live but are reached after an hour or so of walk up in the mountains. I will report next week. I saw almost every flower swarming with ants. Could they be helping in pollination?<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
Well, since its that far, carry some first aid like itch guard, anti histamine and some lacto calamine type skin rub. i know from experience. be careful of the ants they bite. quite painful and swelling results. ants and plant kingdom is a long complicated story. some trees invite them. provide special shelter. food. protection. some simply let them cut up their leaves etc etc<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
some\u00a0are biting types see this report in smithsonian<\/a>:
\nbut they are talking of trees. there are many such examples.
\ni just read a long review last week but cant remember where<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
it was about tree with big thorns<\/div>\n
==
\nbut strawberry plants get infected with aphids<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

and ants try to eat the dew from aphids Fcps<\/a>
\nor eat even the strawberry flower nectar.
\nthey all bite. they do not pollinate the plant , bees and some small butterflies do..
\n<\/span>I knew it and now i have a solid ref from virginia tech: <\/span>Fcps<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Thank you … I will be careful.\u00a0Thank you doubly for the links.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Many thanks to … for the ID in\u00a0<\/span>my photostream<\/u><\/span><\/a>\u00a0at flickr.<\/span><\/div>\n

With Indian F. vesca<\/i> having mostly been identified as F. nubicola<\/i>, I don’t think F. vesca<\/i> occurs Himalayas. Not listed even in Himalyan List<\/span><\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.efloras.org\/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=110&taxon_id=112975<\/span><\/a>
\n<\/u><\/div>\n
Even Flowers of India does not feature it
\n<\/span>Would be safe to assume it as <\/span>F. nubicola<\/i>.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n

Thank you very very much … for this validation.
\nI will correct my notes at my flickr photostream.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n
Thanks, … In that case should I transfer all threads under Fragaria vesca<\/i><\/span><\/a>\u00a0to F. nubicola<\/i> ?
\n<\/span>Pl. confirm.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n

Thanks … for the update. Wish BSI soon complete uploading its checklist of all genera of Indian flora. GRIN has something to say about distribution in Asia GRIN<\/span><\/a><\/span>. But who would tell us what is the real scenario!<\/span><\/p>\n

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

Fragaria vesca<\/i> is reported from China but not Himalayas now.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
By referring GRIN I meant to support your view that vesca<\/i>\u00a0is not found in our country.<\/div>\n

It was my first time seeing this Himalayan strawberry. We have the Duchesnea indica<\/i> aplenty but this one is scarce. I saw several plant with flowers today but no fruit.<\/div>\n

very nice. now wait for the berries to develop. what pollinates these?<\/p>\n

\n

I will go again next weekend. These are not nearby where I live but are reached after an hour or so of walk up in the mountains. I will report next week. I saw almost every flower swarming with ants. Could they be helping in pollination?<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
Well, since its that far, carry some first aid like itch guard, anti histamine and some lacto calamine type skin rub. i know from experience. be careful of the ants they bite. quite painful and swelling results.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
ants and plant kingdom is a long complicated story. some trees invite them. provide special shelter, food,<\/div>\n
protection, some simply let them cut up their leaves etc etc<\/div>\n
some are biting types see this report in smithsonian<\/a>: but they are talking of trees, there are many such examples
\ni just read a long review last week but cant remember where
\n<\/span>it was about tree with big thorns
\n<\/span>==
\n<\/span>but strawberry plants get infected with aphids and ants try to eat the dew from aphids <\/span>Fcps<\/a>
\nor eat even the strawberry flower nectar, they all bite, they do not pollinate the plant, bees and some small butterflies do..
\n<\/span>I knew it and now i have a solid ref from virginia tech: <\/span>Fcps<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Thank you … I will be careful.
\nThank you doubly for the links.<\/p>\n

Fragaria vesca<\/i>– very frequent in temperate and Sub-Alpine slopes edible as wild strawberry.
\n<\/span>Duchesnia indica<\/i> on the other hand grows in lower areas, has yellow flowers, calyx lobes drooping downwards and fruits are tasteless. Dog’s Strawberry.<\/span><\/p>\n

How do you differentiate it with Fragaria daltoniana<\/i>\u00a0J. Gray<\/span><\/a>?<\/p>\n

\n

How about one 1962 note –\u00a0http:\/\/www.nrcresearchpress.com\/doi\/pdfplus\/10.1139\/b62-081<\/span><\/a>?<\/p>\n

\n

You may also like to check another doc, freely available at link<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Whenever we have to check for an East Himalayan plant, you are likely to find it in Flora of China
\nF. daltoniana<\/b>: Sepals reflexed in fruit; plants not taller than 6 cm; epicalyx oblong with 2-3 lobed apex
\n<\/span>F. nubicola<\/b>: Sepals appressed in fruit; plants up to 25 cm tall; epicalyx segments lanceolate, acuminate at tip<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n
Thank you\u00a0… for these excellent resources. From whatever I could absorb from the second paper it seems \u00a0that F. vesca<\/i> is unlikely to be my plant (being found only west of the Urals, Northern Europe, America…). F. nubicola<\/i> on the other hand is a distinct possibility.<\/div>\n
The other paper you pointed to gives the geographical range of F. vesca vesca<\/i> generally as Asia, so perhaps a subspecies exists in these parts.
\nNext time I am in that area, I will collect a specimen and do a detailed analysis.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n
Yes, …, \u00a0my guess is also that Fragaria vesca<\/i>\u00a0is unlikely to be found in wild.<\/div>\n
Thank you …, interestingly FoC thinks F. rubicola<\/i> is present particularly in Kashmir (along with Nepal, Sikkim……) not as a general in India. Neither FoP thinks the species is present in India. Of-course they are not the last words, because the doc
\nlink<\/span><\/a>\u00a0state the species is present in HP (though it is kept inside a bracket for reason unknown).<\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n
Found a couple of flowers on my trek yesterday and I though of posting them here. This one is from about 2500m but I saw another at 2800m too.<\/div>\n

\n<\/span>3 images.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n
Lovely images.\u00a0 So useful to have a shot of the rear of a flower, which illustrates the calyx\/sepals so much better – their shape is often important to know to help towards a reliable identification.\u00a0 As is the underside of leaves (as well as upper surface). The final shot also shows well the ‘epicalyx’ with lobes alternating with the 5 calyx lobes.<\/span><\/div>\n
Fragaria nubicola<\/i><\/u> is very common in the temperate and subalpine zones along much of the Himalayan<\/span>.\u00a0 Stewart remarked that the berries were often gathered for sale by children.<\/span>\u00a0 I have seen it growing abundantly in and at the edge of lower forest in Bhutan (when working as a consultant to The Royal Government on ‘The Cultivation of Medicinal Plants for Traditional Medicine’ – Himalayan Strawberry is used in Tibetan Medicine.\u00a0 Interestingly, it has the same Tibetan name as Saxifraga stenophylla<\/i><\/u> (formerly S.flagellaris<\/i>) which also has small reddish runners.\u00a0 If my memory serves me correctly, the strawberry was the superior form according to Tibetan doctors.<\/div>\n
It is common in Kashmir but when I first came to H.P., leading a botanical tour in Lahoul in 1985, we found Duchesnea indica<\/i><\/u> on the floor of the Deodar forest at Manali – F.nubicola<\/i><\/u> occurs on the Rohtang.\u00a0 By coincidence, I viewed an image of a close-up (but not as good as …) of a white flower from Rohtang which I thought probably was this species, taken by a British visitor (en route to Ladakh) just days ago.\u00a0\u00a0… images help me confirm its identity.\u00a0 “nubicola” means “cloud dweller” and it is certainly found higher in the mountains (to 3800m) than Duchesnea indica<\/u>.\u00a0 I do not recollect having tasted its fruits but am sure they are better than the iinspid ones of the ‘Indian Strawberry’ (Duchesnea<\/i>).
\nThere was an inquiry about distinguishing F.nubicola<\/i><\/u> from<\/span> F.daltoniana<\/i><\/u> – the latter, found from Kumaon to Sikkim usually has (according to Kletter & Kriechbaum in ‘Tibetan Medicinal Plants’)\u00a0smaller leaflets with only 4 ot 6 teeth on each side, not silky on the underside, the ripe fruit becoming conical and pink or whitish when ripe.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n
Oops!\u00a0 Just goes to show that one needs to keep up-to-date as to revisions of genera of plants in the Himalaya – and the reality is that the vast majority of genera in the Himalaya are in need of revision, some urgently so, as our understanding of them is very poor.<\/div>\n
Whilst looking into Fragaria nubicola<\/i>, I noticed that F.bucharica<\/i> is listed by Dickore & Klimes in their check-list for Ladakh flora. I had not heard of this species before.\u00a0 Their is no reference to it.<\/div>\n
I could not readily find any images or descriptions to check. I then spotted the post of … from 2015 which had been re-posted, which draws attention to: link<\/span><\/a>\u00a0– a revision of the Himalayan species of Fragaria<\/i> by Gunter Staudt.\u00a0 I can only access the abstract at present.\u00a0Can some get the full article and send a copy to me and summarise the differences between this species and F.nubicola<\/i>, as I think there may be both species in HP?\u00a0\u00a0Thus we until this is checked, we can only the plant above Mcleod Ganj as provisionally F.nubicola<\/i>.<\/div>\n
The abstract states that F.bucharica<\/i> is found in Kashmir (and it seems the Ladakh part but it must be uncommon and restricted to the moister parts close to the border with Kashmir).\u00a0F.nubicola<\/i> is distributed from HP to SW China<\/span>, whereas F.bucharica<\/i> is found in Kashmir, presumably N.Pakistan, E.Pakistan and Tadjikistan.<\/span><\/div>\n
Yet more names changes to celebrate!\u00a0 Please note that you find me often saying that I consider this to be a particular species, based on my present understanding, all-too-aware that the situation could change – even for species one is\/was fairly confident they knew well!\u00a0 I repeat and this applies to all science, not just botany but we can ONLY ever say (if we have the necessary expertise) that a plant belongs to a particular species, to the best of our present understanding, mindful that revisions of a genus could be taking place as images are posted.\u00a0 Or we were not aware of the revisions.\u00a0 The picture is complicated by differences of opinion in the botanical world amongst the taxonomists who revise plants (some of which perform excellent revisions, other not).\u00a0 So sometimes this means the changes\/revisions are not generally accepted or rejected altogether.<\/div>\n
I realise how bewildering this can be and discouraging but we need to keep going. It also illustrates the NECESSITY for India botany to collaborate internationally and keep up with studies on genera and species found within Indian territory (and bordering countries, as it is worth “keeping a look out for species from bordering countries which may have been overlooked previously).\u00a0Likewise, it is ESSENTIAL for Indian botanists who publish species NEW TO SCIENCE or NEW TO INDIA publish in top quality International Journals. Otherwise their findings cannot be inspected\/checked or be made known.<\/div>\n
I am still unable to access a description of a Waldheimia huegelii or know how to distinguish it from other Waldheimias.<\/div>\n
Their is nowadays a International Code which needs to be followed for the VALID naming of a NEW species. One of the reasons there are so many synonyms for certain species, is that botanists all over the world, acting independently, published species under names without checking – it was much more difficult to do so in the 19th Century.
\nOh Dear, things do have a habit of turning out to be complicated.\u00a0 We all wish it was simpler and easier but hopefully we can all ‘enjoy’ or at least put up with the challenges of naming plants – and keeping “up-to-date”.<\/span><\/div>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n
You are right \u2026<\/div>\n
Yes I agree with you. More morphological features like leaves are needed for ID of a particular plant.<\/div>\n
This happens with everybody. In the heat of capturing more plant species\u00a0we often tend to forget this factor. In spite of that we get the Id about many flowers on Indiantreepix due to many experts. Then one can go to books and learn further to increase one\u2019s knowledge and when he or she gets a chance to visit the place again; can find and study the species further.<\/div>\n
This should not become a shortcut for availability of ID. Each one has its own choice<\/div>\n

To me flowers seem too small for Helleborus<\/em>
\nThere are no associated leaves to connect. Can you upload a better focussed photographs
\nSome associated older flowers do seem to have epicalyx (that is however parted), that prompts me to suggest <\/span>Fragaria vesa<\/i>, but better photographs are necessary for conclusion.<\/span><\/p>\n

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

The leaf of this plant is not like Fragaria<\/i>. Since I haven’t any other well focused photograph I have cropped the leaf at the base of this plant. I have also photographed Fragaria vesca <\/i>and I am uploading it in other post to create a separate thread for the plant.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n

You posted this plant previously and I identified it you again posted the same plant. This plant is Helleborus niger<\/span><\/i> from Ranunculaceae.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Helleborus niger\u00a0<\/i>does not have distribution in India as per\u00a0POWO<\/a>.<\/p>\n
