Dear Tapas

This is quite unlike any species of Euphorbia I have seen. Such serrate leaves are not found in any Indian species. Probably it is  a new intrduction. It needs detailed analysis. Please ask the collector to gather fresh specimens, dissect the cyathia, make sketches and detailed descriptions and send to me for further analysis.

With regards

Balakrishnan

This species  shows unequal limbs of glands and appears to be close to Euphorbia rosea Retz.

Thanks, Nathan ji,

What about Euphorbia rosea?

This is a very interesting find.  It is likely the North American E. dioeca, but a photograph of the seeds would be needed to confirm this.  Almost certainly a part of that species complex.  I don't think there are any Old World species with unequal glandular appendages like this (there are one or two species endemic to Africa, but those are much different).  If photographs of the seeds can be obtained, I would be interested in seeing this again.

Best,

Nathan Taylor

E. rosea, as I understand it, is far less hairy (I have not looked at the sparsely hairy specimens yet, but the photos of the glabrous plants I’ve seen are much different. The leaves are spatulate and the serrations are much shallower. It’s possible that this has been known from India and IDed as E. rosea, but it certainly fits better in the dioeca species complex. When I have the time, I may provide more information later.

Best,

Nathan

It is quite different from E.rosea, this variant is collected from hilly area , in Rapur-Chitvel ghat road; normally E.rosea is from coastal area, the two look quite different, the drawings are enclosed.It is full of hairs, tightly clasped to soil.

Sorry for not responding immediately; now it may be solved I think

Most probably Euphorbia rosea

It is most probably E. rosea Retz, particularly due to different sizes of limbs of glands.

Shall we wait for Nathan Taylor; otherwise it can be considered as a variant of E.rosea,because basic characters remain the same; presence of hairs, short internodes, and size of the leaves (smaller) and stem length differs. Now I am not sure I can re-collect it.
