Now taking it as Ephedra gerardiana.

DSRawat Pantnagar

[J.M. Garg]

Can it be Ephedra intermedia Schrenk & C.A.Mey. as per differences at Ephedra intermedia vs Ephedra gerardiana and as per POWO and GBIF specimens unlike those of Ephedra gerardiana at POWO and GBIF specimens?
Pl. confirm or otherwise.

Great picture, as always. As per literature, male strobili of E. intermedia are said to be 6-12 mm long and 6-8mm wide as compared to that of E. gerardiana (5-6x3-4mm). Best,

[J.M. Garg]

Hi, Rawat ji,

Should it be E. intermedia or E. gerardiana ?
