Not P. glabra because in the first photograph I can see the dark blotches on the dorsal side of leaves.


Best regards,
Ritesh.

Thanks Prashant Ji for sending another image.. and pl ignore my earlier comment! I meant to say P. macuolsa Gray.. not P. maculata Gray.

And certainly this is not P. glabra because you cannot find the red blothces here. Whereas, they can be seen in P maculosa and some other allied species. Ciliate ochrea is also matching with your photo....Please match carefully your specimens with Fl. Pakistan and Tropicos for confirmation.

Regards,
Ritesh.

First trying to answer Ushadi's question "why is it p. hydopiper and not p. glabra?"
Not P. glabra because species is characterized by total absence of ocheal cilia, whole plant also being glabrous
In image number 4, long cilia are clearly seen. Length of cilia plus absence of glands on ochreolae and perianth would suggest P. longiseta
