Re: [efloraofindia:112420] Re: Xerochrysum bracteatum from Delhi: Testing my new Canon 550d

[Gurcharan Singh]

Thanks for this useful information. My son has always been telling this to
me. I usually would use closeup/macro function on the dial which they say
should be used for flowers, but unfortunately it brings down aperture to
lowest mostly 5.6 or even 4 when I use Minolta 28-55 lens with my Sony.
This loses field depth.

[Gurcharan Singh]

Garg i
This controversy has already been resolved in another thread. This is
Ipomoea sindica Stapf,, distinct from both Ipomoea eriocarpa and
Convolvulus scindicus. The confusion arose because of treatment (wrong) in
Flora of Pakistan.

261 (1861).

Synonyms:
*Cirrhopetalum auratum* Lindl., Edwards's Bot. Reg. 26(Misc.): 50 (1840).
*Phyllorkis aurata* (Lindl.) Kuntze, Revis. Gen. Pl. 2: 677 (1891).
*Cirrhopetalum borneense* Schltr., Bull. Herb. Boissier, II, 6: 464 (1906).
*Bulbophyllum campanulatum* Rolfe, Bull. Misc. Inform. Kew 1909: 62 (1909).

colouration. Sometimes it is found in yellow colour too.

Re: [efloraofindia:112404] Convolvulacea Week : Ipomoea sindica from Panipat (indiantreepix@googlegroups.com)

[jmgarg1]

Forwarding again for Id confirmation or otherwise please.

Some earlier relevant feedback:

“There has been a confusion in the name Ipomoea sindica Stapf. described in
1894 from Sind and Baluchistan in Pakistan. This is a small shrub with
thick small leaves, obovate in shape, tomentose, sessile and barely 5-10 mm
long. This is in fact now known as Convolvulus scindicus Stocks, 1852.

 The above plant of Balkar ji is *Ipomoea eriocarpa* R. Br., a much
different plant, a climbing herb with distinctly petiolate leaves, cordate
at base and 2.5-9 cm long. It was wrongly identified by Jafri (editor of
Pakistan Flora) as Ipomoea sindica.

The confusion has been discussed in the following paper:
http://convolvulaceae.myspecies.info/content/ipomoea-sindica-stapf-convolvulus-scindicus-stocks-and-ipomoea-eriocarpa-rbr-convolvulceae-c”
from Singh ji.



“Perhaps I should also mention that there is another Convolvulus scindicus
Boiss., now treated as synonym of Convolvulus prostratus Fossk. (syn: C.
microphyllus Sieb. & Spreng; C. pluricaulis Choisy)” from Singh ji.

[efloraofindia:112397] Cucurbitaceae Week: Identifying main species of Cucurbita

[Gurcharan Singh]

Dear friends
There are hundreds of cultivars of Cucurbita and species are often 
difficult to identify. More difficult is the fact that any species can go 
under the name pumpkin, squash or gourd. Flowers and leaves are not often 
great help. I am uploading few to show the differences. The species can be 
identified by the structure of the tip of pedicel where it is attached to 
the base on fruit.

1. Cucurbita maximait is soft and not expanded at tip
2. Cucurbita moschata..it is expanded angular pad, with a small 
constriction between pad and fruit.
3. Cucurbita pepo: it is expanded with extended fingers firmly attached to 
fruit.

If you dont wish to buy extra flash then use a white sheet at 45 degrees on 
your hood but out of the range of viewfinder. It can reflect the lights 
from your inbuilt flash very well on the flowers. My similar experiments

Recently there was a long discussion on* Ipomoea sindica* Stapf. This 
flower is now displayed on Flowers of India website:

Differences from *Ipomoea eriocarpa* can be figured out better by looking

Balkar Sir & Gurcharan Sir

It's great to know that you will be exploring Gori Valley with your new 
DSLR (s).

I have never used a DSLR yet. But humbly suggesting two aspect for your 
upcoming tour -

1) How about investing some extra bucks on a spare battery?
2) Desiccant silica gel is very useful if the place is humid, it will keep 
the lenses crisp.

Happy exploring

Thank you & Regards,

Surajit

Dear Aruna Ji & Dinesh Ji,

Thank you for the ID help. Today i shot this plant once again to get more 
clear photographs.






Taking the cue from Dinesh-Ji i found a plant at

i think is the species in question.

Thank you once again.

[efloraofindia:112365] Ashok (polyalthia longifolia) flowers

[Vishnu]

Shot in Bangalore- April 2012.

For the first time, I noticed these flowers on Ashok trees (the ignorance 
of the lay person!). The trees are blooming all over Bangalore. I saw some 
very pretty butterflies around this tree- couldn't manage to photograph 
them- wonder if they are species whose larvae are normally on this tree...

Re: [efloraofindia:112364] Trees of Bangalore - Grevillea robusta - Silver Oak Tree

[Vishnu]

Wonderful clear pictures Ramanji! I had tried to take some pictures of 
silver oak flowers today but struggled to get a decent picture. What camera 
did you use? What kind of zoom?

Below are the best pictures I could manage- even after some post 
processing. Shot these in Frazer Town. Used a Fuji FinepixHS10 which has 
30x zoom (it is not a D-SLR). I think I am not able to focus correctly on 
the flowers which are somewhat low contrast compared to the surroundings.

The picture is too small and not clear for identification as pointed out by

closeups of flowers, foliage as well as habit . However, the picture looks

[efloraofindia:112337] Pueraria tuberosa

[Pravin]

   Hi,
   Today at Kanakeshwar,Alibag
   *Pueraria tuberosa*
   Marathi name: Vikari-kand
   Regards

 

Re: [efloraofindia:112336] need id

[shetur]

Yes, I too believe now it is Baliospermum solanifolium.
The story fits too. I had bought it from Jijamata Udyan nursery. When I 
went back and told them it is not barleria. They told me that somebody had 
sold them by the name of Vajradanti. I think the seller must have told them 
it is Danti (Marathi name for Baliospermum solanifolium) and they confused 
it with Vajradanti!

thank you Gargji For forwarding the post and Tapas ji for id. Yes I surely 
apologize for bad quality images, I am not able to manage better than this 
with my phone camera at the moment.

The flower is not clear in the photograph .  Post another picture which

Aruna ji, could not find any genus with such name "Gentelbua". Any error in
spelling ?
To me the posted plant looks like some species of *Strobilanthes* OR *
Hemigraphis* - just a guess.
