Sir,

"Bengal Plants" has 13 Blumea, of which we should have -

1. B. amplectens DC. = a small bushy herb
2. B. bifoliata DC. = do
3. maybe B. oxyodonta DC. = a slender decumbent herb
4. B. wightiana DC. = with purplish corolla (plz. note The Plant List differs)
5. B. glomerata DC. = Conyza fistulosa Roxb. = a rather slender, erect, much branched herb
6. B. lacera DC.
7. B. laciniata DC.
8. B. membranacea DC. = Conyza diffusa Roxb. = a tall, erect, usually much branched herb

I note some info on the last one, Blumea membranacea DC. - 

While B. membranacea DC. in FBI (vol3, p265) is "common throughout India", Conyza diffusa Roxb. of FI (vol3, p429) is "a native of Bengal" !!!

The Plant List recognizes the above as two different taxa -

1. http://www.theplantlist.org/tpl/record/gcc-107401
   
2. http://www.theplantlist.org/tpl/record/gcc-23075
   

FoC doesn't recognize Blumea paniculata - http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=104121, neither does GRIN - http://www.ars-grin.gov/cgi-bin/npgs/html/splist.pl?1520

Can this be Conyza diffusa Roxb.?

Thank you

Regards
