Plectranthus rugosus from Satpura – NSD 61

[Nayan Singh]

Friends,

Photographed this herb in Satpura tiger reserve on 11-10-09

I think it is Plectranthus rugosus from Lamiaceae family.

Experts please confirm the id

Thanks

Nayan

Plectranthus rugosus is now Isodon rugosus

 

I am not very sure whether this one is same. This species is one of the very common plants  in Kashmir valley, a favourite plant of honey bees. That plant to me looked different. But I am not very sure, not having seen the plant for last 35 years.

Plectranthus, I feel has longer lower lip. Any way we are going for five day educational trip to Kullu and Manali from 20th October. May be I am able to photograph this plant and confirm. It is slightly late for Himalayan Flora, but let us hope I am able to report back some interesting plants from the area.

Reply from Shrikant ji:

"Dear Nayanji,
This appears to be Nepeta sp. may be N. hindostana (syn N. ruderalis) usually found on rocky river beds. I am not aware of species distribution of Nepeta in STR. Regards

Shrikant Ingalhalikar"

I had uploaded different aspects of Isodon rugosus (syn: Plectranthus rugosus) coming back from Manali. It is as you will see very distinct plant with rugose leaves, white beneath.
