Thank you.

Thanks, Saroj ji.

It looks different from images at Strobilanthes atropurpureus

Pl. check comparative images of different species in efi so far at Strobilanthes

[J.M. Garg]

On checking comparative images at Strobilanthes, closest seem to be Strobilanthes atropurpureus Nees

Do you have any other images ?

[J.M. Garg]

I am doubtful about this being Strobilanthes attenuata as there is no paniculate inflorescence.

THis might be S. atropurpurea but I can't see the calyx which is very distinctive.

I am not really sure as I cannot see the sepals. It may be Strobilanthes atropurpurea. Where did you see it? At what altitude?
