Thanks, Singh ji, I think the correct wording will be as below: O. dehradunensis (syn: O. intermedia A Rich.) O. latifolia 1. Bulbs usually clustered, stolons present 1. Bulb solitary, stolons absent 2. Leaflet lobes truncate at apex 2. leaflet lobes rounded at apex 3. Flowers tristylous 3. Flowers semihomostylus 4. Longer filaments 4 mm long, pubescent, without appendages, short ones hairy; leaves smaller 4. longer stamen filaments 5-6 mm long, hairy in upper part with 1 mm long
appendages on outside; shorter filaments glabrous 5. Capsule ellipsoid, 3-8 mm. 5. Capsule cylindric 4-6 mm On Sun, 7 Mar 2021 at 14:34, Gurcharan Singh <singh...@gmail.com> wrote: > Since two species are now treated as distinct we need to know the original > description of O. dehradunensis to know exact differences between the two > besides the differences in stamen filaments mentioned by me.
