Dear Sampath ji, Attached images are of Murdannia striatipetala Faden, endemic to India and Sri Lanka. The species has been rediscovered from Chennai after laps of 111 years and the paper has been published in JBNHS. I hope the things are fine at your place, I am doing well here, little professional but having lot of scope to work. Thank you! On Mon, May 18, 2015 at 5:08 PM, V.
