Vijayasankar ji

Nice photographs. Had collected lot of Monochoria vaginalis in Kashmir from rice field borders before 1975. Could not go the rice fields this time, also the season was perhaps early for weeds of rice fields.

Gurcharan ji, is it a rice weed in Kashmir? Or alternate host of rice pests? Any idea?
