Further to my posting about confusion between Anemone polyanthes and A.tetrasepala, have decided to look at Anemone postings.
These images do not fit what I understand to be Anemone obtusiloba. I do NOT consider they are A.tetrasepala either. Furthermore, A.tetrasepala is only recorded from Afghanistan to H.P., so a record from Uttarakhand would be surprising. Anemone tetrasepala is NOT mentioned in 'The Valley of Flowers' book - though it mentions both A.polyanthes and A.narcissiflora. Next comes Anemone polyanthes - which is recorded from VoF but I cannot say it matches this well either. *At present then, I am unsure. Will need to look into this further. MOST of the images I see of A.tetrasepala on google are probably* *A.polyanthes!
