Some earlier relevant feedback:

Yes Limnophila indica Tanay
Feedback from another thread: I had posted this aquatic herb on the forum earlier. It was IDed as Limnophila indica. Can it be Limnophila aquatica or is it Limnophila indica? The leaves are in favour of L. aquatica but size of the flower is small and goes in favour of L. indica. Dr Satish Phadke ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The size of flowers is not a problem, there isn't much difference - L. aquatica = 1 to 1.2 cm L. indica = 8 o 12 mm https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/indiantreepix/JwI5vQX9H_M/1YEKuco1tqYJ Thank you Regards, surajit ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- this link might help - https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/pa-QZ30eS8s/tgMdXnaT9LMJ Thank you Regards, surajit
