I found this small herb on the edge of a pond. This plant is Hygrophila polysperma (Roxb.) T.Anderson. Besides other features the glabrous capsule with pubescent tip can clearly be seen in image no. DSCN7837. And this is the same plant as in - https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en&fromgroups=#!topic/indiantreepix/OHN8QssfQnc, though in different stage of growth. This is more mature stage. More the waterline recedes the spikes of this plant elongate more, and the leaves, i think, reduce, both in number and size.

Attachments (4) This small herb with minute flowers was recorded from my village, usually comes with rice crop (after rains).. I am yet to know the name, the tentative id for me is any Phaulopsis sp., please advise.. Only species of Phaulopsis so far in efi is Phaulopsis imbricata Please check the probability of Hygrophila polysperma (Roxb.) T. Anders. Yes agree with ... Looks like Hygrophila polysperma.

Acanthaceae ...Hygrophila sp. ?? : 2 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (12) Presenting for identification and deliberation ... is of opinion it is probably Hygrophila polysperma (on fb). An auatic herbaceous plant from Surat, Gujarat, seen today (28.11.19) around 0930 hrs in morning. Habitat a vacant plot, was waterlogged. Other plants around were Alternanthera sessilis, Hygrophila auriculata, some grasses, Stemodia viscosa, Ammannia baccifera. Habit is prostrate, terminal part of stem or branches erect. Flower very small...size evident compared to fingers in frames. To me also appears close to Hygrophila polysperma (Roxb.) T.Anderson as per images and details herein and as per comparative images at Hygrophila
