During the course of a revisionary study on the subtribe Lactuceae in India, the authors encountered some specimens which showed affinities with Lactuca rapuncubides Clarke in the general habit of plant, shape of upper and lower leaves, in the drooping nature of the inflorescence and in having outer involucral bracts much shorter than the inner. Critical examination of these specimens both at BSD and DD, particularly the achene character and the involucre, proved that these specimens belong to a new species, which is described here.
