MS, Dec., 2020\/09 plant for id<\/a>
\n1 high resolution image.
\nLocation : Dampui forest<\/span>
\nDate : 03-09-2016<\/span>
\nHabit : Undershrub ?<\/span>
\nHabitat : Wild<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n

Apocynaceae<\/em> member, Ceropegia<\/em> sp.,<\/p>\n

\n

What are the species reported from your area?<\/p>\n

\n

Ceropegia angustifolia, C.longifolia<\/em> and C.macrantha<\/em> are recorded in Mizoram<\/p>\n

\n
Maybe some other genus.
\nDoes not match with any of these species as per\u00a0Ceropegia macrantha<\/a>,\u00a0<\/span>Ceropegia longifolia<\/a><\/em> and Research Gate<\/a><\/p>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n

I guess this is not Ceropegia<\/em> sp.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

Probably genus Brachystelma<\/em><\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
Thanks, … Yes, it appears to be. Could you pl. help us in the id of this one?<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
Hi, …,\u00a0What are the species\u00a0reported from your area?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
I tried, but could not reach to any conclusion as per<\/div>\n
\n

Flora of China<\/a>,\u00a0Checklist of Nepal<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0The existential crisis in Indian Brachystelma (Apocynaceae)<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

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

The genus Brachystelma<\/em> is not recorded in Mizoram<\/p>\n

\n

Anything from Frerea<\/em> or related\u00a0genus?<\/p>\n

\n

No, nothing sir<\/p>\n

\n

Do you have any other photos like that of roots etc.?<\/p>\n

\n

Sorry ! No, sir<\/p>\n

\n

without detailed photos\u00a0of this specimen, we cannot go more further on the Identification<\/p>\n

\n

Thanks, …\u00a0But are sure that it is Brachystelma<\/em> ?<\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n
Whether this is tuberous herb?<\/div>\n
More photos with closeup will be essential.<\/div>\n
\n

At present it doesn’t\u00a0look like Brachystelma.<\/em><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

Corona in the image is not visible and the tuber is present or not. Corona whether single or double. If it is double, then it is Brachystelma<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Brachystelma<\/em> sps<\/p>\n

\n

Convallariaceae<\/em> ??<\/p>\n

\n

An Apocynaceae<\/em> I believe,\u00a0Pentasachme caudatum<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\n

Yes …\u00a0 is right.\u00a0Its Pentasachme caudatum<\/em> Wall. ex Wight (Apocynaceae)<\/em> distributed from Nepal to East Himalaya and much of SE Asia.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n

I think … got it right! Great work …!<\/p>\n
