I found 4 morphological variations in floral structure of Tylophora indica; 1 is normal, widely available; another 2 rarely seen, one is completely yellow, hairy; another one more purplish; last one with hairs on innerside of petals, the petals are not yellow, pinkish; this is to show the intra species variation in a species; earlier Evolvulus alsinoides is posted with 3 variations.

Species : UNKNOWN Habit & Habitat : wild climber on roadside, couldn't reach the plant to take measurements Date : 19/912, 3.40 p.m. Place : Garalgacha (Hooghly) Any chance of Pergularia tomentosa L.?
