I could not find any match in comparative images of species available in efi at Justicia<\/i><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

I need a more sharp photo of flower to confirm.
\nKindly check for Justicia vagabunda<\/i>\u00a0Benoist, Notul. Syst. (Paris). 5: 114. 1936.<\/p>\n

\n
Does not seem to match with illustration of Justicia vagabunda<\/i> Benoist

\n
\n

Same Justicia is attached herewith for rechecking<\/p>\n

\n

Yes, does not match. Acanthaceae<\/i> members highly rely on internal and external morphology of reproductive organs. Does it come close to any other Chinese species? Do let me know. I have forwarded the two Acanthaceae<\/i> to JRI Wood as he has some knowledge on Bhutan and Chinese Acanthaceae<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\n

I am sure this is a Justicia<\/i>. It might be Justicia vasculosa<\/i> (Nees) T. Anderson. I will have a look at Kew on Monday next.<\/p>\n

\n

Dr JRI WOOD tentatively says it to be Justicia vasculosa<\/i> (Nees) T. Anderson. He will further confirm it next week. It is reported from Burma (Myanmar).<\/span> One image in Google is available which is not that clear. Other acanthaceae<\/i> also Dr. Wood might confirm next week when he visits KEW.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Thanks, …, It is really a good news.<\/p>\n

\n
Adding a herbarium specimen:
\nhttps:\/\/science.mnhn.fr\/mnhn\/collection\/p03609612<\/span><\/a>
\nIt seems to match.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n

Yes sir, see FBI vol 4: 533. E. Himalayas and<\/span> khasia mts..<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

It would be interesting if there is capsule in this collection.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
If needed, I’ll try to take its capsule though difficult.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n

In FBI Clarke says in spite of numerous collections, no one has preserved it’s capsule\/seed. Just curious to know if capsule is recorded. You can make a paper with complete illustration – a contribution for revisioners around the world<\/p>\n

I think it is the same as Justicia vasculosa<\/i> (Nees) T. Anderson already tentatively identified by Dr JRI WOOD in another thread<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n
