phyllocephalum scabridum: phyllocephalum scabridum, amboli ghat growing along side the road for miles Phyllocephalum tenue: sharing picture of Phyllocephalum tenue, Asteraceae taken at Amboli Oct, 2012 it form beautiful herb on both side of road at Amboli Nice photograph ! Presume you mean the Purple Heads [Baccharoides scabridum, previously Phyllocephalum scrabidum]. Dr. Almeida's book make no mention of Phyllocephalum tenue. Have this on my property at Shahapur. From my records over the last few years, it generally flowers from September to October. Sending a few photographs. Thanks ... but your plant is different from what i have uploaded, My plant was Id by ... so it can not be wrong sharing picture of Phyllocephalum tenue (Clarke) Narayana It grows as a weed on side of road .. feels so lovely when it flowers :) There appears to some problem with its nomenclature. The Plant List gives it as unresolved- Phyllocephalum tenue (Clarke) Narayana (Unresolved), "in Curr. Sci., 51(8): 439 (1982):" 439 1982. India Biodiversity Portal gives it with Centratherum tenue C.B.Clarke as syn. Taxonomic revision of Centratherum & Phyllocephalum (pdf) (Jan. 1981) treats Centratherum tenue C.B.Clarke as a syn. of Phyllocephalum scabridum (DC.) K.Kirkman. at page 10. Further The Plant List gives Centratherum tenue C.B.Clarke as a synonym of Phyllocephalum scabridum (DC.) K.Kirkman In view of all this I think this may be finally Phyllocephalum scabridum (DC.) K.Kirkman. or issue may be resolved by the experts.
Asteraceae Week (Part II - Discoid heads) :: Phyllocephalum scabridum at Irshalgad :: PKA2: : Attachments (1). 1 post by 1 author. Here is a snap of "Phyllocephalum scabridum" (Asteraceae family). (Photographed at Irshalgad)
Observed in Mulshi. Post rainy season ...may be Nov Crassocephalum or Adenoon?After studying several posts similar to this I strongly believe this to be Phylocephalum scabridum. a)Regarding my first doubt. Crassocephalum is ruled out as it has yellow heads. All features can't be seen here. But this is likely to be P. scabridum.
