VoF Week :: DV :: 31 JUL 12 - 1228 :: Senecio ¿ raphanifolius ? at Auli

[Dinesh Valke]

31 JUL 12 Auli ... 8750 - 9000 ft

Dear friends, ID please. Habitat: sloping meadow Habit: herb about 40 - 50 cm high, flower 20 - 25 mm across (not sure, could be lesser)

Regards. Dinesh

[Gurcharan Singh]

The most crucial feature identifying S. raphanifolius is reddish brown pappus. Perhaps a fruiting head would have helped. Also the species is very near to S. chrysanthemoides and also differentiated by 12-16 ray florets as against 8-12 in S. chrysanthemoides. I can count mostly 9-12.

Thank you very much Gurcharan ji ... this time, do not have the fruiting head; thus considering the probable ID as Senecio chrysanthemoides.
Regards.
