The genus Impatiens L. (Balsaminaceae) consists of about 210 species in India with 106 species (and 13 varieties) in the Western Ghats. Impatiens with over 95% of the species endemic in the Western Ghats, forms one of the primary centres of diversity in India. Recently, several new species from the Western Ghats, viz. Impatiens minae, I. johnsiana, I. theuerkaufiana, I. courtallensis, I. sahyadrica, I. neo-modesta, I. sasidharanii and a variety hirsuta, I. glabrata, I. kawttyana, I. taimushkulni, I. nilgirica var. nawttyana, I. stolonifera, and I. mankulamensis and I. panduranganii have been discovered.Full Text

Impatiens L. are the most fascinating group of plants having ornamentally desirable flowers with varying colours and are often called ‘jewel weeds’ or ‘orchid balsams’. Majority of these are annual herbs and a few are perennials. In India, the species are mainly concentrated in two biodiversity hotspots, viz. the Himalaya in the north and the Western Ghats in the south. About 210 species of Impatiens have been reported from India, among which 106 are endemic to the Western Ghats. Karnataka has 41 species of which 19 are endemic.Full Text
