Two species listed in Nepal are Seseli indicum Wight & Arn. syn. of Seseli diffusum (Roxb. ex Sm.) Santapau & Wagh (India (Plains of India), S-Nepal, Pakistan (I), Myanmar [Burma] ) Seseli trilobum (Edgew.) C. B. Clarke syn. of Seseli nudum (Lindl.) M. G. Pimenov & E. V. Kljuykov (SW-Tibet, NW-India (W-Himalaya), Jammu & Kashmir (Zanskar), W-Nepal, Pakistan (Chitral)) While taking a bity of rest lying down, I got this idea about your unidentified Apiaceae species and about Seseli, Oenanthe and Selinum species. So finally it is Oenanthe javanica as per images, details and references herein. I have gone through the description in both Flora of China & Flora of Pakistan and satisfied about this id now.

Fruit also matches as per FOP illustration I feel leaf pattern does not match ! Attaching a collage of Oenanthe stolonifera (WATER PARSELY/ WATER DROPWORT) Can this also be Oenanthe linearis as per FOI ? I think looks different from image of Oenanthe linearis as per FOI Looks different! Elevation, date, location ? Separate images instead of collage would have been better. Thank you ...

Pl. check comparative images at Apiaceae Pl. check Oenanthe javanica (Blume) DC. To me appears close. Looks matching ! I find number of flowers in one umbellules is less, i.e., 11-13 only compared to net images and drawing from FoC. I was having doubts about it, in view of recent id of your same species plant. But it is Ok as per It is a highly variable plant as far as leaves are concerned as I found it has around 2500 observations in GBIF. SK1516 17 Oct 2018 : 14 posts by 3 authors.

Osmorhiza aristata ? case was discovered and is in RBG Thank you ... I shall check. Pl. also check comparative images at Apiaceae Pl. check Oenanthe javanica (Blume) DC. To me appears similar. It may be some related species as per Checklist of Nepal. Pl. check Oenanthe hookeri C. B. Clarke and Oenanthe thomsonii C. B. Clarke Yes! It is matching. Oenanthe javanica (Blume) DC. It may be some other species from this genus. I checked and feel that it is close to O. javanica compared to others listed in Nepal. Oenanthe OK. Thanks. You seems to be right as other two species look different as per I was having doubts about it, in view of recent id of your same species plant. But it is Ok as per It is a highly variable plant as far as leaves are concerned as I found it has around 2500 observations in GBIF. Saw this Apiaceae member along the Govindghat - Ghangaria trail, Uttarakhand in Aug 2018. Requested to please provide ID. Pl. check comparative images at Tried but failed to match any species as per comparative images at Apiaceae Any idea about the genus? Pl. check Oenanthe javanica (Blume) DC. The leaves look different from the ones in the efi pics. Also, leaves are trifoliate. Can this be something else? Thanks, ..., It is a highly variable plant as far as leaves are concerned as I found it has around 3500 observations in GBIF. Pl. check variability in efi site also at Oenanthe javanica (Blume) DC. Also see FOP illustration in this regard. I think id is OK.
While flora-watching (I have borrowed this term from ...), and I can assure you that this is as much rewarding as is birdwatching, yesterday in Sonepat, Haryana, I came across quite a few plants which I am not able to ID yet. This one was growing adjacent to an irrigation channel towards the shady area. ID help requested please. Some Pimpinella species from Apiaceae? Thank you ..., It looks like Pimpinella saxifraga at http://images.google.co.in/images?hl=en&q=+Pimpinella+saxifraga&gbv=2&aq=f&oq= Leaves are different. See the illustration at http://www.botanical.com/botanical/mgmh/b/burles89.html I also came across such a plant in Hisar, Haryana. I think it is Cicuta virosa Ref: http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Cowbane.html Thanks, ... Links for Cicuta virosa: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cicuta_virosa (Wikipedia link), http://images.google.co.in/images?hl=en&q=Cicuta%20virosa&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi (pictures). It looks close to images, references and details at Oenanthe javanica Looks different from Cicuta virosa as per I guess you are right ...!

Santapau & Wagh (India (Plains of India), S-Nepal, Pakistan (I), Myanmar [Burma] ) Looks like POWO illustration is different. POWO Being low resolution, it is difficult to see whether it has been correctly connected and named. Thanks, ..., I am also not convinced with this id. Also looks different from high resolution specimens at https://www.gbif.org/species/3631588 I think this may be Oenanthe javanica (variable species as far as leaves are concerned as can be seen from GBIF).
