Plant for ID

[mayur nandikar]

Respected all,
I have confusion with this Plant Murdannia ??? (Commelinaceae)
Some of the Morphological charachters shows smillarities with
Murdannia pauciflora Wight. But there is an confusion with bearded
fertile filaments and habit.
On the other hand the same species cosidered by Rolla Rao and
Kammathy as a Murdannia wightii having glbrous filaments and blue
coloured flowers.
I also search original citation of Robert Wight but it couldn't
match with that.
So anyone can having information about above plant then please reply.
If it is possible then help me out by providing the original citation
M. pauciflora (Wt.) G. Brukner in Engl. & Prantl. Pflanzwenfam. ed. 2.
15a: 173. 1930.
M. wightii Rao & Kammathy, Notes Roy. Bot. Gard. Edinburg 25 (2): 184. 1964.

Thank you in advance.
