Dear Dr Garg

I have been having a look at trobilanthes on the eflora website.

I have spotted a few things that could be identified or corrected:
  1. Listed under Strobilanthes angustifrons Kashmir 111-011-AK-1 (patina Top) Is correctly Strobilanthes attenuata
  2. Listed under Strobilanthes species from Hualtu Mizoram (MS Oct. 2016) is Strobilanthes capitata.
  3. Listed under Strobilanthes species from Kathmandu Valley (SK8 Mars 2016) is neither Strobilanthes nor Acanthaceae. It appears to have spurred flowers. Could it be Impatiens?
  4. Listed under Strobilanthes glutinosus? from Chakrata is Strobilanthes tomentosa
  5. Listed under Strobilanthes angustifrons from Musoorie is Strobilanthes bracteata
  6. Scaber should be changed to scabra in Strobilanthes scabra.
  7. micranthus, glutinosus, heyneanus, consanguineus and barbatus should change to Strobilanthes micrantha, Strobilanthes glutinosa, Strobilanthes heyneana, Strobilanthes consanguinea and Strobilanthes barbata as Strobilanthes is a feminine noun.
Best regards

John Wood
