Asteraceae Week (Part I - Radiate heads) :: ¿ Acmella uliginosa ? for validation, at Yeoor Hills :: 16 DEC 09 02:03 :: DV41 : (2 + 3) images. 7 posts by 3 authors. please validate this to be Acmella uliginosa; the plant is growing by road-side - scrub vegetation on waste ground. In this case, the leaves - especially basal - are larger, broader compared to those in my earlier post ... perhaps owing to difference in habitat. at Yeoor Hills, Thane on 16 DEC 09 Seems very likely...thanks ... A better view of leaf base should help, also close up of head. The cropped pictures attached; hopefully it helps. I am inclined to take it as A. ciliata 1. Leaves are broader and appear ovate, not gradually narrowed at base. 2. Shape of heads is typical of A. ciliata 3. Close up of head though not very clear suggests pentamerous disc florets.
