I think it (with yellow flowers) is close to Blumea lacera as per details and references herein and as per high resolution specimens at

This one does look very similar to that in Surajit ji's post, and does look like B. lacera.

Thank you very much Garg ji for combing the Blumea posts.

I earnestly hope more of those who are familiar with Blumea spp. come forward and express their thoughts.

Regards.

Dinesh

Thanks, Dinesh ji.

Blumea's are really really difficult. I never got the courage to look at them for a long long time.

But finally I took the plunge and have been working on these for last five days.

I am now getting the clarity on this genus.

Hope more experts come up and take revision of different genera in efi site.

[Dinesh Valke]

There are too many variations in sizes of leaves as well as plant heights, they confuse me easily, never could get familiar with almost any of them.

Regular field visitors should be able to help us sort the IDs.

Regards.

Thanks a lot, Lalithamba ji.
