Ceropegia candelabrum var. biflora (L.) Ansari, Fasc. Fl. India 16: 12 1984. (Syn: Ceropegia biflora L.);
Sighted this Ceropegia sp near Magadi, Bangalore rural, Karnataka, about 800 msl on 15-08-2015 in an enclosure in a scrub forest. I believe this is Ceropegia candelabrum var biflora. Kindly validate. Habit: A twiner. yes ceropegia candelabrum var biflora for sure Here added some snapshots from fascicles of Flora of India 16 (1984), which will be helpful to all of you Attachments (3) Here is Proper publication that clears that both species are distinct 1) The species is without corolla beak is ceropegia candlebrum Type - (Plate of Rheede, Hort malab, 9, 27 tab 16 (1678) 2) and the species with corolla beak is actually ceropegia biflora Type - (Plate of ceropegia 110, Hermann Herb (British Museum) Ceropegia biflora (BM000621069) it was clear since beginning that both species are distinct. it is first publication on ceropegia in world by Carl Linnaeus. but people keep merging them and make confusions without investigating any data. Ansari in his fascicle gave varietal status to biflora without even collecting it. Roxburgh, William in his Plants of the Coast of Coromandel described the same ceropegia biflora as ceropegia tuberosa infact it is now synonym of ceropegia biflora also stevens in his (in saldhana et nicholson flora of hassan district 445 , 1976) maintains ceropegia tuberosa as distinct but actually it is ceropegia biflora which was published so many years before. So attaching rare Photograph which produced from British Museum Of type of c.biflora - BM000621069 and Plate of of hortus malbalaricus C.candlebrum Attachments (2) Thanks ..., for the interesting discussion and also for sharing the rare and beautiful illustrations
Fwd: ceropegia - indiantreepix | Google Groups : 6 posts by 1 author. Attachments (1) This flower was found in Eastern Ghats Bakhrapet range off Tirupati in August. Is it a common Ceropegia sp. in the Eastern Ghats? What is the correct species name? This is possibly Ceropegia candelabrum var. biflora reported from eastern India. Please provide sizes of corolla, lobes and apex along with vegetative characters for confirmation. The whole length of the flower was 5-5.5 cm. The climber was about 1 metre high. I didn't get the leaves details since I was just attracted by the oddity of the flowers at that time! ... my colleague and who is in this group mentioned Ceropegia tuberosa as possible but he was also not sure. Thanks very much for the info. Yes, the info provided by you tallies with C. candelabrum v. biflora. I will come back to you with confirmation. I have confirmed that this is Ceropegia candelabrum v. biflora. Congrats for having located a rare one. What is the abundence of this plant? Thanks very much. When I took this picture, if I remember correct, there were a couple of plants in that 50 sq. m. area but there should be many such suitable habitats around. This was when I was part of a BNHS bird ringing program some years ago. The Tirupathi hills and possibly much of the Eastern Ghats are comparatively less well explored than the Western Ghats. I am aware that the Dept. of Environment has recognized the Eastern Ghats as a Biodiversity hotspot and projects submitted have a good chance of getting funded. I feel knowledgeable and committed Botanists should apply and undertake this exciting work
