North Bengal flower ID Request 2 -25May09: SJ - indiantreepix | Google Groups : 8 posts by 5 authors. Attachments (2) north bengal, Oct08; Blue Oxalis (Parochetus communis) http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Blue%20Oxalis.html Thanks again, ... Am assuming both are the same? though one looks purple but then you mentioned some time ago that colour doesnt matter! not an expert but one appeares to be of pap or fabaceae family while the other appears to some sps of Oxalis? is the second a runner? While I was deciding on the upload of my photographs of Parochetus communis from Manali, I stumbled upon this mail. I wish to point out that whereas the second photograph is probably of Parochetus, the first one is clearly a different legume with pinnate trifoliate leaf (middle leaflet has longer stalk than other two), whereas Paochetus has palmate trifoliate leaves (all equally long stalks or sessile). Perhaps we will have to explore the identity of first photograph. I have not reached any conclusion yet.
Plz confirm id Parochetus sp.: Its a species of Parochetus communis or any another species of Parochetus.
On leaves of Parochetus communis black and yellow lines are present on the attached plant the black line is followed by red line.

Trek Route: Return from Shri Hemkundsahib to Ghangharia camp Date: 23rd August,2010 Apprx height: +3049Meters ID ref. Courtsey: www.flowersofindia.net Apart form its BLUE, The leaf pattern I liked more. It is a species of Parochetus (Fabaceae) and not Oxalis (Oxalidaceae). It is known as blue oxalis, because flowers and blue and leaves look somewhat like Oxalis genus. It is the same way as wood rose is not a species of Rosa.

Parochetus communis Buch.-Ham. ex D.Don Prodr. Fl. Nepal. 240. 1825. Synonyms: Cosmiusa repens Alef. Parochetus maculata Bennett Parochetus maculata R.Br. Parochetus major D.Don Parochetus oxalidifolius Royle Family: FABACEAE Current pic was taken near Valley of Flowers in Uttarakhand. I love that unique blue colour of the flowers. On searching through earlier mails, I noticed that it was observed in Sikkim (... ) Arunachalam (...) Chamba (...) and by ... also apart from Valley of flowers. A somewhat similar plant Desmodium triflorum from western ghats was also got mis IDed as this but later corrected as the flower colour and the leaf pattern is different. (Just sharing my analysis)
