The species known from Uttarakhand are E.cicutarium<\/i> and E.stephanianum<\/i>. Of these E.stephanianum<\/i> have long awned sepals, as long as breadth of sepal,<\/span> which once again suggest it as E.cicutarium<\/i>. Probably doubt expressed by me earlier is doubtful now.<\/p>\n

\n

I think E. cicutarium<\/i> which shows a lot of variation in segmentation of leaves in populations I have seen in Kashmir. E. stephanium<\/i> which looks similar has very long awns on sepals very conspicuous. E. moschatum<\/i> which has become naturalised recently has different leaves, leaflets split not even up to 1\/4 depth, whereas in E. cicutarium<\/i> there are generally split to middle or even deeper. I have photographed it in California. …(deliberately or not) has correctly omitted the error in the original key of Flora of India.<\/p>\n

\n

Thanks for the discussion … I should now take this as Erodium cicutarium<\/i>..<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
