Hello,

Looks like some Zehneria sp. from Cucurbitaceae.

Most probably Zehneria scabra (Linn. f.) Sond.

Dear Mr. Rajdeo,
You are a project fellow and hopefully a professional botanists thats
why I am responding to this.

Carl Linnaeus (1707-1778) is abbreviated as L. and not Linn..
Similarly, Carl Linnaeus (1741-1783) is cited as L.f. and not Linn.f.

This is according to ICBN as well as Brummitt and Powel (1992). Though
the name is same but the persons are different.

Regards
Pankaj

Hi,

Ok thanks for correcting me, from next time i will be careful in writing the citations

[Pankaj Kumar]

Thanks a lot Rajdeo for taking it with good spirits. I had no idea
that it was you, so nice to see you here. So I have now one more of my
professional taxonomist/botanist friend here on eflora. Do enrich us
with your knowledge of Asterids and keep posting. I usually tend to
run away from your study plants :)) and grasses.

Regards
Pankaj

I had a relook at all the posts in efi site on Zehneria‎ and added keys herein.

It should be Zehneria bodinieri (H. Léveillé) W. J. de Wilde & Duyfjes based on keys at Zehneria‎
