Kalatope id Al071712: An observation I had thought to be Carduus sp... but I think I am mistaken.... Please help in id.. Location Kalatope, Chamba Altitude 1200mts Habit herb Habitat Wild Height 18 inches Flowering season May I think Emilia sonchifolia (Asteraceae) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emilia_sonchifolia Not Emilia please. Saussurea heteromella, I hope Thanks for the correction sir.....!! Yes it is not Emilia... I was in hurry and didn't see the infl. properly :-P I think this is very close to Tricholepis I agree with ... This is Saussurea heteromalla (D.Don) Hand.-Mazz. Thistle growing wild in the Jim Corbett area on 24/3/13. Id please. Some leaves please. May be a Saussurea. Yes, can be Saussurea candicans.... Thanks for a possible id. I found this picture of the leaves. Saussurea heteromala. S. heteromella is current name for S. candicans S. heteromella (The Plant List & GRIN) & S. candicans (The Plant list & GRIN) are different as per GRIn & The Plant List.- from me. It is Saussurea heteromala. Some one needs to investigate and go at the root of confusion. Clarke had in 1876 described Saussurea candicans Clarke, described in Flora of British India with Cirsium heteromallum Spreng and Carduus heteromallus as synonyms. He also mentioned Aplotaxis candicans DC. as first synonym. It seems a combination was made before Clarke by Sch.Bip. in 1846. Flora of Himalayas as well as Enumeration of Flowering Plants of Nepal consider Saussurea candicans (DC.) Sch.Bip. as synonym of Saussurea heteromalla (D. Don) Hand.-Mazz., ; Symb. Sin. 7: 1152 (1936), citing also as synonyms Aplotaxis candicans DC. and Cirsium heteromallum Spreng. This plant is now correctly known as Himalaiella heteromalla (D. Don) Raab-Straube, 2003. In above publications it seems there is no mention of Saussurea candicans Clarke, which is listed as distinct species, apparantly the synonyms mentioned in FBI were not correctly assigned. It now seems that Saussurea candicans Clarke and Himalaiella heteromalla (D. Don) Raab-Straube are two very distinct plants, belonging to two different genera as per GRIN and The Plant List. The Million dollar question is what is our common Himalayan plant (and the above one) and whether one or both grow in Himalayas. And if both occur here how to differentiate them. Not to forget that description given by Clarke for S. candicans is based on West Himalayan specimens.
This herb is common in dry places in Morni Hills.. I could fix the id as Saussurea heteromalla (Syn. S. candicans).. Please validate/correct.. this shows variation in texture/shape of leaves as well as the colour of flowers from the plant I have just uploaded as Saussurea candicans.. I think yes. Nice photographs.
Saussurea heteromalla (D.Don) Hand.-Mazz. [= Cnicus heteromallus D.Don; Aplotaxis candicans DC.; Saussurea candicans(DC.) Sch. Bip.] is a common spring herb in Pantnagar. It is also found in Northern Plains of India and Himalayas. Perhaps my question in this thread needs to be resolved. I am repeating it again: Some one needs to investigate and go at the root of confusion.

This plant described as Saussurea candicans in FBI and earlier Indian Floras, the correct identity as well as nomenclature is not clearly understood This should be Saussurea candicans C. B.
