Lindernia mollis / Vandellia montana ?

[Jacob & Hosanna Thomas]

This sample was collected Sept 14 2020 in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Definitely in the Linderniaceae family, distinctive for the large leaves (3-4cm) and relative small flower (~4mm). Appreciate your input

Looks different.

Thank you.

Can it be Lindernia diffusa? I have found the same plant and was never sure about its identity.

I think this is Lindernia viscosa (a highly variable species) as per images and details herein and as per comparative images at Lindernia‎

Since I posted these photos I had been wondering whether it is Lindernia multiflora (Roxb.) Mukerjee. It's very similar to this specimen.  However, all other confirmed L. viscosa photos I see have the corolla's lower lip at right angles to the upper lip (as in other L. viscosa samples I've seen near here), but in the area I've collected these samples none of them have this characteristic. Since this characteristic is not in the descriptions, I guess it isn't essential.

Thanks for your identification, I trust your judgment.

[radha veach]

Thank you Garg ji,

I had puzzled over this plant for some time. You must be correct
