Dear Mr. Garg,

1. It is not listed in Nepal according to ACFPN, CoL an d POWO

2. Images from FoI,  EFI and POWO and illustration from FoC differ.

Thank you.

I further checked up.

Your plant certainly looks different.

Images at Ammi majus are Ok as per references herein except for one thread, which I am looking into.

Forwarding again for Id assistance please.

After struggling for many weeks, I got the clarity on this plant after getting confused about variable Oenanthe species.

I think it is Oenanthe linearis as be specimens in GBIF. Leaves of this plant lies between two specimens given in gbif from Nepal.

https://api.gbif.org/v1/image/unsafe/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kew.org%2Fherbcatimg%2F670240.jpg

https://api.gbif.org/v1/image/unsafe/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kew.org%2Fherbcatimg%2F670224.jpg

It also matches with the keys and detailed description given in Flora of China.

I think Catalogue of Life rightly puts Oenanthe javanica subsp. linearis (Wall. ex DC.) Murata, Oenanthe linearis subsp. rivularis (Dunn) C. Y. Wu & Pu Fating & Oenanthe linearis subsp. sinensis (Dunn) C. Y. Wu & Pu Fating under Oenanthe linearis Wall.

Pl. see their illustrations at http://www.iflora.cn/picture/IF/55(2)-205.jpg & keys at Flora of China

[Saroj Kasaju]

GBIF says specimen from Nepal.

Oenanthe linearis Wall.

Thank you Mr. Garg !
