[Alok Mahendroo]

Dear friends,

Sometimes in my ignorance I quickly overlook flowers thinking they are
the same as the one's id'd before and then I realise they're not...

This one looked like Hieracium vulgatum..... and then I realised it was
not...

Location Pangi, Chamba
Altitude 3000 mts
Habit herb
Habitat wild
Height 18 inches

regards
Alok

Alok JI

I think you were not far away. It is Picris hieracioides, characterised by yellow ligulate heads, with blackih glandular hairs on phyllaries,  brownish achenes without beak and most importantly feathery pappus.

Thank you sir, it is a compliment to your guidance that even though I
had neglected to look carefully at this flower... and in spite of that
did manage to photograph the requisite features..

Yes Alok ji

Your last photograph is as good as you had sent for Crepis. If members take that much pains it would be good for all: experts, members and our database.
