Attachments (3) Requesting to please provide ID of this Utricularia species captured near Satara, Maharashtra in October 2014. The flowers were very tiny and were not easily visible to the eye. I had posted similar flowers captured at Rajgad near Pune some time back in this thread It is Utricularia praeterita Thank you ... for the ID.. 12-8-2015_Devaramane_Utricularia_for ID assistance. : 6 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (5) Submitting images of an Utriculara sp for identification. Date/time: 12-8-2015/ About 5-00 pm Location: Devaramane, Mudigere, Chikmagalur, Karnataka about 1400 msl Habitat: Wild Habit: Herb, Occurring in rock crevices amidst grass. Utricularia species in eFloraofindia (with details/ keys from published papers/ regional floras/ FRLHT/ FOI/ Biotik/ efloras/ books etc., where ever available on net) Beautiful pictures. But, without KEY & details I am unable to identify the species out of about 38 distributed in our country. South India has several blue, purple, pink and a mix of all 3 coloured flowers of Utricularia. Even colour vary in a given species. Whereas my experience is with only two yellow species! However, please check probability of Utricularia praeterita P. Taylor. I am not sure if it is mix up of two species. The base of the lower lip is not clear. Appears U. praeterita. Would appreciate a specimen along with fruit for confirmation.
Submitting few images of a Lentibulariaceae sp for ID assistance. Could this be an Urticularia.....??? This was occurring at some distance from Utricularia graminifolia tufts..! Habit: Terrestrial herb. Habitat: Evergreen forests, amidst wet rock crevices. Sighting: Devaramane, Chikmagalur, Karnataka, about 1400 msl Date: 22-08-2015 It looks like Utricularia praeterita. Only thing the color is little pale - either due to over exposure or naturally white like in most of the Utricularias where blue ones break into white. References: |
