Came across this plant near Matheran (14-11-09).
I could not see any leaves.
Could it be Euphorbia cristata, not very sure.
The images are not adequate for identification. Unless the whole plant with leaves are separated from the bush and photographed, perhaps it would be possible to identify it. However, the white leaves subtending the cyathia and bending down are quite unusual in Euphorbia. It is worth investigating the plant further and a detailed study would be interesting
