Some earlier relevant feedback: Some Polygonum species? DSRawat Pantnagar This is the *Common Marsh Buckwheat [Polygonum glabrum].* My photographs of this are available at this link : https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en&fromgroups#!search/Common$20Marsh$20Buckwheat$20Neil$20Soares/indiantreepix/BpM99GeDUOY/FqWbauCyIcsJ With regards, Neil Soares. *Not P. glabra* because in the first photograph I can see the dark blotches on the dorsal side of leaves. This could be Persicaria maculata (Raf.) Gray <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=220010181>. Best regards, Ritesh. I am attaching a cropped image of the first photo where the maroon patch near the middle of the leaf are properly seen. Some of the leaves are turning red also. Very excited to know the proper id ... plz let me know. -- Prashant Thanks Prashant Ji for sending another image.. and pl ignore my earlier comment! *I meant to say P. macuolsa Gray..* *not P. maculata Gray.* And certainly this is not P. glabra because you cannot find the red blotches here. Whereas, they can be seen in P maculosa and some other allied species. Ciliate ochrea is also matching with your photo....Please match carefully your specimens with Fl. Pakistan <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=220010181> and Tropicos <http://www.tropicos.org/Name/50002191> for confirmation. Regards, Ritesh. *Persicaria glabra, Syn polygonum glabrum* Family : polygonaceae - from Smita ji This *would be* *Persicaria hydropiper **(L.) Delarbre* . - from Shrikant ji. First trying to answer Ushadi's question "why is it p. hydopiper and not p. glabra?" Not *P. glabra* because species is characterized by total absence of ocheal cilia, whole plant also being glabrous In image number 4, long cilia are clearly seen. Length of cilia plus absence of glands on ochreolae and perianth would suggest *P. longiseta* *Persicaria* *glabra* (Willd.) M.Gómez ?? Thank you.
