To me appears close to images at Swertia nervosa (Wall. ex G. Don) C. B. Cl.

Looks different from Swertia nervosa (Wall. ex G. Don) C. B. Cl.

[Tapas Chakrabarty]

He thought it to be a new species! Unfortunately nothing can be done now because most of his collections are lying without any label due to his premature demise.

[Saroj Kasaju]

I guess very much close to S. nervosa!

Thank you.

Dear sir

Actually this photo was taken by me from Blue Mountain NP, Mizoram, and I was unable to identify this. Then I sent to MK Pathak Sir. But it was unknown to me that he sent it to you for id. 

After that he passed away. 

Anyway I kept it as Swertia nervosa only.

[J.M. Garg]

Hi, Sawmliana ji,

May I know what are the species of Swertia listed in Mizoram?

Thanks a lot, Sawmliana ji.

Hi, Samiran ji,

Do you have an image showing the lower parts?

[J.M. Garg]

This is Swertia nervosa as per keys and discussions at Swertia nervosa (Wall. ex G.Don) C.B.Clarke

[J.M. Garg]

Sorry. Considering cordate, sessile lower leaves (though not very clear), it should be Swertia alata only as per keys and discussions at Swertia nervosa (Wall. ex G.Don) C.B.Clarke
