request id - clicked at Kaas plateau last year

[Alaka Yeravadekar]

Clicked around August end at Kaas plateau last year.
Have not yet been able to find an id for this.
At first I thought it was Rhampicarpa, but the shape, texture of petals looks different.

Thank you.

Thanks Mayur, Hemsan. But I do not have any other photos. That is why it is difficult for me to id it too :)

... with Mayur ji's thoughts ... Rhamphicarpa longiflora (now put as synonym of Rhamphicarpa fistulosa).

Yes you are right Dinesh ji this R. longiflora is synonymous under Rhamphicarpa fistulosa

Unfortunately beautiful venation on the petals is not conspicuously visible in the picture.
