Mollugo pentaphylla FOR VALIDATION :: Rao Jodha Desert Rock Park :: 24 OCT 18

[Dinesh Valke]

Rao Jodha Desert Rock Park  Jodhpur Date: October 24, 2018 ... Altitude: about 300 m (980 feet) asl

¿ Mollugo pentaphylla ?   Dear friends, I think the plant is Mollugo pentaphylla; please help validate. The leaves in the photos, I think, belong to another plant growing in same space.

Regards. Dinesh

Looks something else. 

Does not match with images at https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/m---z/m/molluginaceae/mollugo/mollugo-pentaphylla

Thanks Garg ji, you are correct about this plant not being Mollugo.

One of my flickr contacts suggested Commicarpus verticillatus (Poir.) Standl.

Hoping this ID gets validated.

Regards.

Thanks Amitha ji for clarification.

Garg Ji, 

I was going to suggest Commicarpus Species.

Aarti

[Dinesh Valke]

Thanks Aarti ji for suggesting / validating the ID to genus.

Regards.

Dinesh

[J.M. Garg]

Yes. Appears so as per https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/m---z/n/nyctaginaceae/commicarpus

[J.M. Garg]

Appears close to Commicarpus chinensis (L.) Heim. as per comparative images at Commicarpus‎

Thanks very much, Garg ji for the ID.

Yes it does appear to be Commicarpus chinensis.

Will label my pictures in flickr accordingly.

Regards.

Dinesh

[Dinesh Valke]

Looks like the name Boerhavia chinensis (L.) Rottb. has regained acceptance, at least looks so in The Plants List, and Commicarpus chinensis (L.) Heim. is now considered as its synonym. Please validate.

Regards.

Dinesh

[J.M. Garg]

As per your given link, 'The record derives from WCSP (in review) (data supplied on 2012-03-23).'

So it is better to reply on Catalogue of life.

[Dinesh Valke]

Thank you very much, Garg ji.

Will go by Commicarpus chinensis (L.) Heim.

Regards.

Dinesh

[J.M. Garg]

It should be Commicarpus boissieri as per discussions and references at Spotted at Rao Jodha park, Jodhpur 1
