It is good I have seen N. candida, because for some time I was considering my Delhi Nymphaea (from our College) to be this species. Smaller leaves in your specimen are distinctive of this species. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
