Vijayasankar ji ... salutes ... indeed mistaken identity.
Have attached the photos dug from archive ... they were not uploaded because of poor quality.

Will make changes accordingly in my notes.
Immense thanks for this correction.

Dinesh ji, do you by chance have any other picture of this plant showing bracts? Somehow this looks like Barleria montana (bracts entire here, but bristly ciliate in B. cristata) to me. I may be wrong but. If you have already verified this, then you should be right.

Dinesh Ji,

Pasting a link of Bengal Plants for the Bengali name of this plant - http://ia600604.us.archive.org/BookReader/BookReaderImages.php?id=mobot31753000237419&itemPath=%2F32%2Fitems%2Fmobot31753000237419&server=ia600604.us.archive.org&page=n153_w1150.jpg

The name should read as জতি or জাতি for the coloured ones and সাদা জতি or সাদা জাতি for the white ones, i think.

Thank you & Regards,

surajit

Many many thanks Surajit ji for providing the correct names for this plant. Will incorporate these names in near future,
A query stems: is ঝিন্টি jhinti a valid name for this plant, OR needs to be removed ?

Regards.

Good morning Dinesh Ji

A link of Hortus Suburbanus Calcuttensis - http://ia600507.us.archive.org/BookReader/BookReaderImages.php?id=hortussuburbanus00voig&itemPath=%2F17%2Fitems%2Fhortussuburbanus00voig&server=ia600507.us.archive.org&page=n518_w1150.jpg

According to Piddington = JHINTEE in Sanskrit

According to "Plant Groups" (H. Mukherji) = JHINTI in Sanskrit and JHINTE in Hindi for Barleria cristata.

শাদা should be written as সাদা (white) , for a majority of West Bengal colloquial/verbal Bengali doesn't make sharp difference between "S" and "SH".

And জাতি, in place of জতি .

Thank you very much.

Regards,
