Asystasia dalzelliana Santapau ??

Thank you

Saroj Kasaju

[J.M. Garg]

Thanks, Saroj ji, for the genus id.

I think it is Asystasia variabilis Trim. as per GBIF- specimen, Flora of Peninsular India

Image given in GBIF is of some other species.

Going by other specimens (Specimen 1, Specimen 2), I think leaves appear to be quite variable.

I have checked all other species found in India. It does not match with other species as per details at Asystasia

Images available at the following appear to be wrongly identified and may be of Asystasia crispata Benth. and Asystasia dalzelliana Santapau:
