This small, delicate herb was captured during our visit to Gori Valley area... please help to id.. can this be some Torenia sp.? Torenia species in efi I think only species given is Torenia cordifolia in Scrophulariaceae of the Western Himalayas By Francis . Pennell This appears to be very interesting. Pl. check with images & details at To me images of this species at Flowers of India look different & may not be correct. The Plant List Ver. 1.1 says it has no synonym and POWO says different synonyms except for the T. parviflora. Torenia parviflora Buch.-Ham. ex Benth. — The Plant Listwww.theplantlist.org/tpl/record/tro-29206727 However, the CoL says same synonym.
Location : Thula Khet, Pokhara, Nepal Date : 10 August 2017Altitude : 2800 ft. Torenia ...??? Pl. check comparative images at efi site I am confused between Torenia cordifolia Roxb. & Torenia indica C.J.Saldanha as per comparative images at efi site https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/l/linderniaceae/torenia Appears close to images by Nidhan ji at Scrophulariaceae Fortnight: For id from Gori Valley-NS 35 Pl. check with images & details at To me images of this species at Flowers of India look different & may not be correct.

SK1560 12 Nov 2018 : 8 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (9) - around 600 kb each. Location: Dahachowk, Switzerland Park, Kathmandu,,Nepal Date: 29 September 2018 Elevation: 5600 ft. Which Scrophulariaceae :?? Torenia ?? Yes. Appears so. Please check Pl. check possibility of Torenia thouarsii (Cham. & Schltdl.) Kuntze along with other species. It is too much hairy. I could not find the match. I have checked all species in Checklist of Nepal These do not match with species already there in efi site at Torenia except for closeness with Torenia thouarsii (Cham. & Schltdl.) Kuntze There is one species which is not represented so far in efi site: Torenia diffusa D.Don. But its specimens look different from posted plant as per To me matches with existing images at Torenia thouarsii (Cham. & Schltdl.) Kuntze Pl. also see So in the above circumstances, Torenia thouarsii (Cham. & Schltdl.) Kuntze is the best choice. Torenia violacea (Azaola ex Blanco) Pennell ?? I guess the description, flowering season and elevation matching to Torenia violacea. And T. thouarsii not listed in Nepal. Need to check this sp. in the FoI. Appears totally different from images at Torenia violacea |
