Thanks Tanay for information

[Ushadi micromini]

So if this is the indigenous himalyan Aconitum..
it is most likely

Vatsanabha or Halahal (as in Halahal vish) of Ayurved ...

is it?
or is the ayurvedic vatsanambha a different species?

I think it is ateesh

[ushadi Micromini]

Thank you Balkarji:
another synonym of vatsanabha , I think...
a ferox and a. heterphylla are both mentioned in the siddha and Ayurveda...
