Seen this\u00a0herb near “Hemis Monastary”<\/span>\u00a0Ladakh<\/span>.\u00a0Leaves were hairy.<\/span>
\nDate\/Time: 15-09-2011 \/ 01:30PM
\nLocation: Hemis Monastary, Ladakh<\/span>
\nPlant Habit: Herb
\nHabitat: Wild, seen near the rocky soil.
\nFlower size: Approx 4mm across,<\/span>
\nFamily:\u00a0Boraginaceae<\/i>.
\nI had posted this earlier. Response from …: “Boraginaceae<\/i>, identification not possible without fruits, if the were not visible could be Myosotis alpestris”. Thanks … for possible ID and the inputs.<\/div>\n
\n

looks like some\u00a0Cynoglossum<\/i>\u00a0sp<\/p>\n

\n

Two fruits are seen, more clearly in second photograph: one at extreme right above the flower and one near the upper margin in between the flowers.\u00a0 … could you crop these from original photograph and upload for clarity. From these it is clearly not\u00a0Myosotis<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

Can yellow ring points towards some\u00a0\u200e<\/i>Hackelia<\/i><\/span><\/a>\u00a0species ?<\/p>\n

I agree that without fruits (typically nutlets) some\u00a0Boraginaceae<\/i>\u00a0can be difficult.<\/div>\n
My first thoughts are an\u00a0Eritrichium<\/i><\/u>\u00a0rather than\u00a0Myosotis asiatica<\/i>\u00a0(syn.\u00a0Myosotis alpestris<\/i>\u00a0subsp.\u00a0asiatica<\/i>) which is the only\u00a0Myosotis<\/i>\u00a0recorded from Ladakh.<\/div>\n
I seem to detect green, immature fruits in two of the images, showing bristles.\u00a0 If so, this means will be an\u00a0Eritrichium<\/i><\/u>\u00a0– of which\u00a06 are recorded for Ladakh:\u00a0E.canum<\/i><\/u>,\u00a0E.fruticulosum<\/u>,\u00a0E.hemisphaericum<\/u>,\u00a0E.patens<\/u>,
\nE.thymifolium\u00a0<\/u><\/i>and\u00a0E.villosum<\/i><\/u>; it is not\u00a0E.villosum<\/i><\/u>\u00a0(syn. E.nanum subsp. villosum) or\u00a0E.hemisphaericum<\/i><\/u>.<\/div>\n
Eritrichium<\/i><\/u>, according to ‘Flowers of the Himalaya’ have ovoid nutlets, 3-angled with winged margins, with or\u00a0without hooked bristles.<\/span><\/div>\n
Will need to check out the others.
\nI must locate my copy of Boraginaceae<\/i>\u00a0of Pakistan and see if this makes things clearer.<\/div>\n

I think it appears close to the\u00a0POWO<\/a>\u00a0specimen<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0GBIF<\/a>\u00a0specimen<\/a>\u00a0of\u00a0Eritrichium spathulatum<\/em> (Benth.) C.B.Clarke (listed in\u00a0Ladakh\u00a0checklist\u00a0<\/b>by L. Klime\u0161 and B. Dickor\u00e9<\/a>\u00a0as published in 2009).<\/p>\n
Kindly confirm or otherwise pl.<\/p>\n
\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
More close to\u00a0Eritrichium canum\u00a0<\/i>var.\u00a0fruticulosum\u00a0<\/i>(Klotzsch) Y.J.Nasir ??<\/p>\n
\n<\/div>\n

I think different as per\u00a0GBIF<\/a>\u00a0specimens:
\nSpecimen 1<\/a>
\nSpecimen 2<\/a><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n

This is some\u00a0Eritrichium<\/i>, could be\u00a0E. spathulatum<\/i>, but without fruits it is hard to tell the species.<\/p>\n
