Dear friends, The ID of posted plant is in error. Many thanks to Tabish for notifying me of my incorrect identification at Flowers of India <http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Golden%20Dodder.html>; ID corrected by Minal Jani as *Cuscuta campestris Yunck*.
In the group's database, I found few posts related to *Cuscuta campestris* very helpful. Surajit ji's post Jan2015sk22 Hooghly - Cuscuta sp. ID <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/4juCgPJGMN8/YHpA9ZMONDEJ> please, detailed as always and another of Chitraleka ji's Cuscuta ID request - 09012015PC1 <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/bfjRLWATjlI/HhoxjZAgch8J> which has analysed the ID to detail. Garg ji, please do the needful by shifting the link to this post from *C. chinensis var chinensis* to *C. campestris* Yunck. Thanks to all, and regards.
