Abstract

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.

Abstract

Aconitum heterophyllum exhibits a wide range of inter and intra population variability throughout its natural range of distribution. Three distinct geographical and ecological groups have been recognised within the species which constitute 3 varieties. These are A. heterophyllurn var. heterophyllum, A. heterophyllum var. bracteatum and A. heterophyllum var. roylei. An exhaustive account of the morphologicd variation within the species and a diagnostic key to the varieties with an enumeration have been presented. Each species has been provided with correct name and citation, synonyms, type specimen, distribution, list of specimens examined and notes.

Abstract

Present study deals with the variation pattern among the populations of Podophyllum hexandrun L. Both intra-as well as inter population variation mainly in hight of plants, length of internodes, length of petioles, leaf incision, margins and pubescence, length of pedicels, colour of flowers, size of fruits and number of seeds have been observed. Some of these variations are continuous and unstable. The variety P. hexandrum var. jaeschkei has been reduced here as synonym under P. hexandrum for the first time.
