Altitude: about 3670 ft asl ID please ... (family: Asteraceae) Habit: herb, standing about 40 - 60 cm Habitat: mixed deciduous forest The flower about 20 - 25 mm across. Reminded me of Pentanema indicum - but does not look so. It can be Pulicaria wightiana. After seeing this plant I had impression that I have seen similar plant in Delhi, but was not able to recollect the name. Thanks ... for suggesting Pulicaria wightiana which prompted me to hunt out my plant P. dysentrica which is clearly different in woolly stems and much narrower involucre bracts. I think ... may be right in identifying it as P. wightiana with narrower leaves, puberulus stems and prominent involucre bracts.
