Hello friends

Saw this along the Govindghat - Ghangaria trail, Uttarakhand in Aug 2018. Is this some Lindenbergia?

Requested to kindly provide ID.

Thanks and regards

A reply:
"This should be Lindenbergia indica
According to Hjertson M.L. Botanical Jouml of the Linnean Society (1995). 179: 265-321.
Distribution of both species is almost same in India.
Lindenbergia muraria: Leaf blade 0.4-6.2 cm long, petioles 0.1-4.3 cm long, flowers 0.6-1.1 cm long.
Linderbergia indica:  Leaf blade 0.1-6.0 cm long, petioles 0.1-2.5cm long, flowers 0.8-1.8cm long.
Major difference is; in L. muraria ovary and capsule are pilose whereas in L. indica both are glabrous.
Whereas, in Flora of Maharashtra Vol 2: L. muraria leaves are more than 1.5 cm long, petioles 0.6-2.5 cm long and flowers about 0.8 cm long; L. indica leaves about 1.5 cm, petioles less than 0.5 cm and flowers about 2.5 cm long.
Based on images petioles are smaller and flowers are much longer to L. muraria.
Kind regards,
Varun"
Thanks, Varun ji.
