Morina polyphylla Wallich ex Candolle, Prodr. 4: 644. 1830. ?;
Unid from Tawang: TQ-Tawang-09 : Attachments (2). 3 posts by 2 authors. This herb was found on the way to Sela Pass in Arunachal Pradesh. Altitude could be anything between 3500-4500 m. Sorry for the poor quality of the pics - this is the best we could manage in the situation. Is this Morina polyphylla ? The description in Flora of China says, "Inflorescence 8-10 cm, compact, of many whorls; involucral bracts (3 or)4-6 per whorl, connate basally, forming a cup-shaped structure..." I am not able to make out if these white things that we see in the pics, are the bracts that are mentioned in the description. Please help Often I wish I knew plants sooo much that I could help in most unknowns, but... when I enlarged the thumbnails,Could the white stuff be snow, lingering , hence mis-shapen?
