Hello Aaratrik,

I am referring to my observation uploaded in iNaturalist ... https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/93261475

where you have suggested the ID of Torenia godefroyi.

Are you sure you want to change the ID back to T. crustacea ?

Regards.

Dear all,

I am correcting my notes at flickr. Aaratrik inadvertently suggested the ID of T. godefroyi.

Regards.

Thanks to all for correcting me regarding my identification. I've added an observation of T. godefroyi on iNaturalist, hoping it will clarify the characteristics.
