Hello Dineshji,

  I can confirm that the photos that you have posted as Ipomoea 
parastica conform in all respects to the plants that I had grown and posted 
in the PlantFiles at DavesGarden.

Thank you for the opportunity to contribute my perspective.

Very nice Sir ji
I have seen this climber flowering regularly everyday for a large duration
of time last month or so.
At least few flowers every day. Now the season is about to be over. Clicked
some shots today itself. Will post separately.

I think Dinesh has rightly picked up the purple colour which is present on
the margins or centre of the leaves of this species.
Of course other characters like deeply cordate base of the leaves; purple
flower with dark throat and the calyx4-6mm also corresponds well.

 I admit that i acted like a fool. But this identification science is new

 Yes, Madam, i was familiar with 'Kalmi saag' but that was on the lunch

  Sir,

 I thought it was some other species, not an Ipomoea aquatica. The
 reasoning behind my anticipation was -

 a) It is a twining climber found on roadside having ditches beside
 it. But a point to be noted is that those ditches are entirely dry

 b) The leaf blade is significantly broader and there is  variation
 in blade-shapes

 c) Stem is narrower and hairy

 d) Stamens protrude outside of the corolla

 e) Anthers are purple

 f) Flowers are a tad smaller and appearance of the flower is a bit
 pentagonal than a perfect round shape

 Having been suggested by Mani Sir i too think now that it is also a 
 Ipomoea
 aquatica, maybe slightly modified due to terrestrial adaptation.

 Yet a google search leads me to the following websites that contain
 similar leaves and flowers with very minute variations. Of-course wiki 
 says
 that this plant is from North America! :-

 parastica conform in all respects to the plants that I had grown and posted
 in the PlantFiles at DavesGarden.

 Thank you for the opportunity to contribute my perspective.

 best regards,

 Ron


 P.S. - I have been very preoccupied with some private matters but hope
 to be able to go through the postings for years 2011 and 2012 for
 Convolvulaceae posted on this site for review and comment

covered with long spreading hairs.

2. Leaves pubescent with short hairs
 2.  Leaves with long spreading hairs

3. Infl. Several flowered in dense umbellate cymes.
 3.  Inf. 1-few flowered.

4. Bracts linear or lanceolate.
  4. Bracts linear or
filiform

5. Sepals subequal, gradually linear-acuminate,
 5. Sepal almost equal, with spreading long hairs on outside

 appressed pilose, outer 3 lanceolate to broadly
near base, subglabrous above with linear tip

 lanceolate, inner 2 narrowly lanceolate.

6. Corolla blue or bluish-purple aging to red, 5-7 cm long.

Photo of Ipomoea indica sepals for comparison

Ipomoea nil is an annual and often producing many seeds , while Ipomoea 
indica is a perennial , often very self-incompatible due to the  
development of clonal colonies.

 The posted plant looks similar to what Dave's 
 Gardenhttp://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fdavesgarden.com%2Fguides%2Fpf%2Fgo%2F104810%2Fsa=Dsntz=1usg=AFrqEzfsGXkcOSFinAWrK-EAwO2veVSxlAhas.
  A go-to site for me for finding garden flora.

 Many thanks Vijayasankar ji for pointing to the possibility of *Ipomoea
 lutea*.
 But the flower tube in illustration seems relatively larger.

 If there is no such name, then the posted plant could be just a
 variation in colour of flowers, and may well be *Ipomoea hederifolia*.
 Let us wait for comments.

 Regards.

 Could it (now) be Ipomoea lutea?

Hello Dinesh Ji,

 I will share my experience regarding the binomials , epithets  and 
associated 'subtaxa'.

The plant you have posted is indeed Ipomoea hederifolia and despite some 
hesitation expressed by some other members  in the past as to whether 
dilute color forms exist , I will say that I am aware of dilute color forms 
existing within wild populations in both the New and Old World.

The addition of the subtaxa 'lutea' and sometimes 'aurantia' , although not 
official was used by some growers and merchants in an attempt to give 
credence to the dilute color forms (even though not yet officially 
recognized) rather than use a description like my favorite yellow or 
orange dilute form. The usage of the lower taxonomic rank terms like 
vaiety and forma has to start someplace and I do not believe that it is 
only 'official' taxonomist who should be allowed to institute the usage of 
taxonomically correct terms.

I supported the usage of recognized taxonomic terms rather than 
non-taxonomic terms because I thought it would be best in the long term 
regarding organizing some wild variants.

Ipomoea lutea is a distinct and separate species from either Ipomoea 
hederifolia , Ipomoea coccinea or Ipomoea cristulata.

There was some substantial confusion created when a marketing firm in 
Australia ( about 10 years ago) began to market seeds that they were

P.S. When I suggested the usage of taxonomic ranks of variety and forma be 
used in place of silly marketing terms ,  I also always was sure to 
emphasize  placing the 'new subtaxa' in single quotation marks to indicate 
that the terms were not (yet) officially recognized , but merchandisers did 
not strictly follow my advice and so therefore Ipomoea hederifolia 
var.lutea appears instead of Ipomoea hederifolia var.'lutea' and so on...

Re: [efloraofindia:110941] Nomenclature; botanical names versus common names

2012-03-16 Thread Vijayasankar
This kind of confusion occurs when revisioners rely only herbarium
specimens. Since the color differences can't be seen in the herbarium, they
tend to merge these otherwise distinct (by color) varieties. I don't know
if Basella alba var. rubra occurs in wild, if not, it is a mere cultivar
which doesn't require a formal combination and author citation. In that
case the earlier treatments (B. rubra, B. alba var. rubra) become
synonymous to B. alba as treated in Fl.China, GRIN etc.

Another similar situation can be seen in Vitex negundo var. purpurascens
Sivar.  Moldenke. This variety can't be distinguished in the herbarium as
it differs only by color (rather prominently) from its typica. Any
revisioner may tend to merge these two by not finding strong taxonomic
characters to distinguish.

There may be several cases where plants distinct in the field but difficult
to distinguish in the herbarium (such as Flacourtia indica (Burm.f.) Merr.
and F. ramontchi L'Her.). The destiny of the status then becomes a matter
of preference / opinion, to merge or to treat as different variety. And
always a subject of debate.

I feel if a 'variety' doesn't exist in wild, and originated by cultivation,
it should be considered only a cultivar and not a taxonomical variety.

 Dear Mr. Porcher
 The latest online version of Flora China (2003), treats B. rubra L. as
 synonym of B. alba L.

 A agree with you that *Basella alba* L. 'Rubra' appears to be most
 logical, but then it accepts merger of B. rubra with B. alba, and merely
 regards it as cultivar of B. alba L. (not even a variety, which would need
 formal author citation for the combination). I think there should be no
 harm in linking all common names associated with B. rubra with B. alba
 'Rubra' and those associated with B. alba traditionally with simple B. alba
 L. That would also go well with p[redominant taxonomic position.

 OK invalid may not be the correct term, would you prefer unresolved?
 certainly the synonymy isn't universal around the world.
 I have always failed to understand how 2 different plants can have 2
 different names which are considered synonyms.
 B. alba var. rubra could be a synonym of B. rubra, but B. alba = B. rubra
 
 The ARS GRIN database used to have many of those, years ago. Today they
 have a more logical approach (except in this case).
 If I am wrong, so be it, I'll plead guilty to being an ignoramus, I am
 certainly not a taxonomist.
 My problem is matching common names with 2 different bot. names
 considered synonyms. One ends up with contradictory names which cannot be
 synonyms since they mean different things... like Red-stemmed vine
 spinach vs White-stemmed vine spinach. Names with similar meaning exist
 in French, German, Spanish etc. for both. My approach is to find a bot.
 name that suits the horticultural rules. *
 Basella* *alba *L. '*Rubra*'  for all the names referring to the colour
 red appears logical to me.
 Looking quickly at my favourite references:
 GRIN has B. alba = B. rubra
 Flora Europaea ignored B. rubra
 Flora of China considered both as different species, and so do many of
 the Indian scholars.

 I have never cone across the statement that Basella rubra L. is an

 recognize it an independent species. Since both species were described on
 the same date in Species Plantarum of Linnaeus, the author who merged these
 two species chose B. alba L. as correct name and B. rubra L. as synonym.

 Sir,

 I thought my journey (as an explorer) to ‘Convolvulaceae Week’ for the 
 current session ended last night! But this afternoon i chanced upon another 
 member of this family what i think is Ipomoea bona-nox L.

 It is a big sized flower with equally big leaves. I think the ID is 
 correct because -

 1) my copy of “Plant Groups” (by H. Mukherji) describes it as “a large 
 climber with white flowers”

 2) it conforms the words “giant white moonflower”  “vines and climbers” 
 as have been described in http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/893/#b - 
 tracked http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/893/#b

 3) as i plucked a flower-bud to force open its petals i noticed secretion 
 of “milky juice” and “greenish midpetalline bands” as have been described 
 at http://www.mpbd.info/plants/ipomoea-alba.php - 
 trackedhttp://www.mpbd.info/plants/ipomoea-alba.php

 4) But i may be wrong, because there is one similar post at - 
 https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!searchin/indiantreepix/ipomoea$20alba/indiantreepix/0snjTZGmjSQ/7jBkq6TqMS0J
  - 
 trackedhttps://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#%21searchin/indiantreepix/ipomoea$20alba/indiantreepix/0snjTZGmjSQ/7jBkq6TqMS0J
  that 
 suggests otherwise.

 Now, it’s before you to validate the ID.

 Species : Ipomoea bona-nox L. ???

 Habit : herb, trailer  climber

 Habitat : wild, beside ditch

 Date : 14-March-2012, 4.50 p.m.

 Place : Kamarkundu (Hooghly), WB

 P.S. When I suggested the usage of taxonomic ranks of variety and forma be
 used in place of silly marketing terms ,  I also always was sure to
 emphasize  placing the 'new subtaxa' in single quotation marks to indicate
 that the terms were not (yet) officially recognized , but merchandisers did
 not strictly follow my advice and so therefore Ipomoea hederifolia
 var.lutea appears instead of Ipomoea hederifolia var.'lutea' and so on...

Hello,

   The most important feature to capture for Ipomoea hederifolia to 
differentiate from Ipomoea coccinea is the calyx of the fruit in various 
stages...

The leaves on both Ipomoea hederifolia and Ipomoea coccinea can mimic each 
other ( I know because I have grown enough of them myself) but the pedicels 
of Ipomoea hederifolia always remain erect while the pedicels of Ipomoea 
coccinea reflex...

So, in my experience trying to differentiate Ipomoea hederifolia from 
Ipomoea coccinea using any other part except the calyx and pedicel will 
lead you astray...

regards,

Ron

  Sir,

 I thought my journey (as an explorer) to ‘Convolvulaceae Week’ for the 
 current session ended last night! But this afternoon i chanced upon another 
 member of this family what i think is Ipomoea bona-nox L.

 It is a big sized flower with equally big leaves. I think the ID is 
 correct because -

 1) my copy of “Plant Groups” (by H. Mukherji) describes it as “a large 
 climber with white flowers”

 2) it conforms the words “giant white moonflower”  “vines and climbers” 
 as have been described in http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/893/#b

 3) as i plucked a flower-bud to force open its petals i noticed secretion 
 of “milky juice” and “greenish midpetalline bands” as have been described 
 at http://www.mpbd.info/plants/ipomoea-alba.php

 4) But i may be wrong, because there is one similar post at - 
 https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!searchin/indiantreepix/ipomoea$20alba/indiantreepix/0snjTZGmjSQ/7jBkq6TqMS0J
  that 
 suggests otherwise.

 Now, it’s before you to validate the ID.

 Species : Ipomoea bona-nox L. ???

 Habit : herb, trailer  climber

 Habitat : wild, beside ditch

 Date : 14-March-2012, 4.50 p.m.

 Place : Kamarkundu (Hooghly), WB

 (images : 800x600)

  flower (forced open)

 flower (underside view)

   leaf and bud

 plant on the ground

  plant showing twining characteristic (but without any flower)

 Thank you  Regards,

[efloraofindia:110956] Key for differentiating the morning glory family members?

Daer all: 
is there a simple english based key (like whta Gurcharanji has done in the

I am having some confusion about distinctly iding merremia vs the ipomea 
for instance, not to mention cuscuta etc ...

What is visible of the seedpods and the corolla profile in the background 
flowers also matches Ipomoea marginata.

Ipomoea horsfalliae is mostly very self-incompatible due to reproduction 
via cloning , so therefore seedpods and seeds are rarely ever seen...

 I think Dinesh has rightly picked up the purple colour which is present on
 the margins or centre of the leaves of this species.
 Of course other characters like deeply cordate base of the leaves; purple
 flower with dark throat and the calyx4-6mm also corresponds well.

 Madam,

 I admit that i acted like a fool. But this identification science is new
 to me and having a degree in Bio-science doesn't help me to ID anything to
 the slightest degree. Moreover, I was/am an average student, a slow
 learner. It takes me much time to gather all data and find a relation
 between the each collected bit.

 Yes, Madam, i was familiar with 'Kalmi saag' but that was on the lunch
 table! As for the daily bazaar, my brother takes care of that!

  Sir,

 I thought it was some other species, not an Ipomoea aquatica. The
 reasoning behind my anticipation was -

 a) It is a twining climber found on roadside having ditches beside
 it. But a point to be noted is that those ditches are entirely dry

 b) The leaf blade is significantly broader and there is  variation
 in blade-shapes

 c) Stem is narrower and hairy

 d) Stamens protrude outside of the corolla

 e) Anthers are purple

 f) Flowers are a tad smaller and appearance of the flower is a bit
 pentagonal than a perfect round shape

 Having been suggested by Mani Sir i too think now that it is also a
 Ipomoea
 aquatica, maybe slightly modified due to terrestrial adaptation.

 Yet a google search leads me to the following websites that contain
 similar leaves and flowers with very minute variations. Of-course
 wiki says
 that this plant is from North America! :-

[efloraofindia:110974] Re: Convolvulaceae Week :: Ipomoea hederifolia in Maharshtra

2012-03-16 Thread Ron_Convolvulaceae
Hello fellow taxonomic enthusiasts,

  I have grown many strains of both Ipomoea hederifolia and Ipomoea 
coccinea from different parts of the world and here is my firm conclusion.


The flower and leaf form may vary considerably in both of the species in 
question , so do not be fooled into attempting to Identify by either the 
corolla or the leaves...but , the calyx and more importantly the behavior 
of the pedicel is THE most important aspect to consider and I see erect 
pedicels in this set of  photos.


My conclusion is the plants shown here are Ipomoea hederifolia.


Please be aware that the references and keys are most often written by 
people working in the field where precise measurements and clear closeup 
photographs of all relevant parts and at all stages of growth is rarely 
possible., so the keys of yesterday are somewhat obviated by the 
macro-photography of the computer age...

The people who wrote many of the keys never actually grew the plants ( or 
studied them every single day watching very closely every single 
development of the parts at all stages of growth)  but they were often 
forced to do what they could in the form of taking quick notes in the field 
as they moved on to the next series of plants they hoped to get 
to...quantity of information often took priority over quality and line 
drawing were what was possible long before before small digital cameras.


I hope that my observations and thoughts may ultimately prove to be of 
value,

regards,

Ron

[efloraofindia:110976] Re: Convolvulaceae Week :: Merremia umbellata subsp. orientalis in northern Western Ghats

2012-03-16 Thread Ron_Convolvulaceae
Hello Dineshji,

  Should you ever have opportunity to take any clear closeups of the 
fully mature seeds, I am interested to correlate seed characteristics with 
plant morphology , even though others have been not yet been successful at 
this type of correlation.

I find that the seeds of M.umbellata subspecies umbellata are very 
consistent in seed characteristics and resultant plant morphology...same is 
true for M.umbellata subspecies orientalis and I am at a loss why others 
are unable to see the consistencies...

regards,

Ron

2012-03-16 Thread Ron_Convolvulaceae
Gurcharan ji
The Plant List in 2010, but unfortunately it has more errors and omissions 
and unresolved names than one can cope with.

I personally also find The Plant List to be unusable.


OZmic
I have always failed to understand how 2 different plants can have 2 
different names which are considered synonyms.


Because at some point in time the synonyms which are shared were thought to 
accurately represent both plants...they didn't have the instannt 
computerized tools available that we enjoy today...and still there are many 
fuzzy areas to be clarified...

My problem is matching common names with 2 different bot. names considered 
synonyms

A single plant can have a hundred common names because a common name can be 
applied by anybody...there is no authority to check what a 'true common 
name' is...

Basella alba L. 'Rubra'  for all the names referring to the colour red 
appears logical to me.

I like the approach that the name should accurately describe some aspect of 
the plant as opposed to commemorative names which serve no practical 
botanical purpose at all but simply boost someones ego by having a plant 
named after them...commemorative names have no place in botany from my 
point of view.

Vijayasankar
This kind of confusion occurs when revisioners rely only herbarium 
specimens. Since the color differences can't be seen in the herbarium.

Digital photography of Living Plants is far more valuable than dried out 
herbarium speciens which distort many features and characteristics leading 
to big confusion and chaos.


Just some thoughts,

regards,

Ron

 Dear new friends,
 Thanks to Dinesh (surname supressed), I think I have found a forum that 
 will stimulate me. I have been waiting for some plant names in Indian 
 scripts to appear on the www since 1995 when I first launched the MMPND. 
 Pankaj (surname supressed) contributed a few but back then the fonts were 
 not available. I had to create images with devices that did not produce the 
 exact words, the result was poor. Since then there has been an abundance of 
 words in various scripts. We are now facing a new problem. Nomenclatural 
 identification.
 There is the official nomenclature - taxonomy, and there is the vernacular 
 (common names). Not always matching each other. Photos help but without 
 photo, one needs to start from a strong basis. Hence my work since the 
 1985's, 1995 online.
 My point is: I would suggest that we use the authority names with all 
 botanical names, that is for example *Azadirachta excelsa* (Jack) M. 
 Jacobs as opposed to just the usual *Azadirachta excelsa* . Why? because 
 the bot. name on its own may mean different things when used by different 
 authorities. In order to track down the synonyms in the search for a 
 positive ID a complete botanical name is the first strong step. I suggest 
 the first 2 sites in order to find those generally up-to-date complete bot. 
 names:
   http://www.plantnames.unimelb.edu.au/Sorting/List_bot.html#sec.02 - 
 trackedhttp://www.plantnames.unimelb.edu.au/Sorting/List_bot.html#sec.02  
 
   http://www.ars-grin.gov/ - tracked http://www.ars-grin.gov/ 
 These will also supply bot. synonyms and common names...and more. They are 
 valuable when doing searches online. 10 names will return nothing and one 
 will return hundreds of pages. I have had plenty of experience since 1995. 
 These 2 sites are built on years of experience started long before the 
 internet was invented. Do take advantage of that experience. 
 There are also other sites dealing with bot. names but usually not as 
 focused on international communication. Many of those are linked in some 
 way to these 2 anyhow.
 Regards to all.

 Sir,

 It's my pleasure to share any info i am able to collect on our
 biodiversity. Today i revisited the place and also surrounding area, found
 more of this plant. I could collect some more data on it -
 1) The stem has 'hook' like structure, attaching a photograph
 2) A local person said that it blooms in the evening
 3) A housewife from the same place said they sometimes make vegetable
 dishes out of its buds

 Regards,

 Sir,

 I thought my journey (as an explorer) to ‘Convolvulaceae Week’ for the
 current session ended last night! But this afternoon i chanced upon another
 member of this family what i think is Ipomoea bona-nox L.

 It is a big sized flower with equally big leaves. I think the ID is
 correct because -

 1) my copy of “Plant Groups” (by H. Mukherji) describes it as “a large
 climber with white flowers”

 2) it conforms the words “giant white moonflower”  “vines and climbers”
 as have been described in 
 http://davesgarden.com/guides/**pf/go/893/#bhttp://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/893/#b
  - tracked http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/893/#b

 3) as i plucked a flower-bud to force open its petals i noticed secretion
 of “milky juice” and “greenish midpetalline bands” as have been described
 at 
 http://www.mpbd.info/plants/**ipomoea-alba.phphttp://www.mpbd.info/plants/ipomoea-alba.php
  - tracked http://www.mpbd.info/plants/ipomoea-alba.php

 4) But i may be wrong, because there is one similar post at -

 suggests otherwise.

 Now, it’s before you to validate the ID.

Sir,

In one of my previous reply i used the term hook for those prickle like 
growth on the stem. But hook is not a scientific word in this case for 
sure.

What will be the correct term?

 From the posts received during the Convolvulaceae week I am really amazed 
 to see the number of species and genera it contains.
 5-6 years back when I started observing the flowers closely in pursuing my 
 hobby I was aware of only Ipomoea as a genus and I never imagines that many 
 *Ipomoea *flowers come from different plants and I used to neglect them. 
 Now after several months it is heartening to say that I know many species 
 now.(Credit goes to Efloraofindia too)
 The flower shapes of Convolvulaceae are described differently. Sometimes 
 the meanings are difficult to understand. I tried to compile some of these.
 *Campanulate : **
 *

 Bell-shaped. A flower with a wide tube and flared lobes (petal tips), 
 typical of the Bellflower family (Campanulaceae).

 As in *Convolvulus*(This word is used for Genus *Volulopsis *in BSI Mah 
 flora)* *Some Merremia members e.g.*M.gangetica* and *M.hederacea*
 *Funnelform : *As in *Argyreia *and *Ipomoea**
 *

 *Infundibuliform* : Funnel shaped(Funnel-shaped) (This word is used for 
 *Cressa 
 *and *Evolvulus*)

 A flower that widens gradually from the base, ending in an open or flared 
 shape. 

 *Trumpet-shaped*

 A flower that starts as a narrow tube, but widens into a flared mouth, 
 where the petals often turn back. 

 *Salverform*

 A flower with a long, thin tube, that widens suddenly into a flat-faced 
 flower.

 *Hypocrateriform *:/ hypocraterimorphous


1. In *botany*, salver shaped: an epithet applied to a corolla 
consisting of a straight tube surmounted by a flat and spreading limb, as 
in the cowslip and phlox.

 http://theseedsite.co.uk/flowershapes.html


 *Subglobose*: Close to spherical; As in Cuscuta
 In Stictocardia and Ipomoea the Corolla is *Infundibuliform* or 
 *Hypocrateriform 
 *
