It is also similar to + +C. latifolia +Linnaeus (1753: 165) + +but differs in ovate-elliptic, small (1.8–2.8 × +1.7–2.2 cm +) leaves, solitary, terminal inflorescence, small flower c. +2.8 cm +long, anther +1.4 mm +long, stigmatic lobes with two different lengths ( +vs. +lanceolate to ovate, large (12 × +7 cm +) leaves, inflorescence on the axils of upper leaves forming a raceme, large flower +3–4 cm +long, anther +8-11 mm +long, same length stigmatic lobe). + + + + +Description +:—Decumbent to erect, +70–80 cm +long, annual, herbs. Root fibrous. Leaves sparse, ovate-elliptic, 1.8–2.8 × +1.7–2.2 cm +, apex obtuse to rounded, base rounded, margin sinuate, pubescent; with very sparsely pubescent on both surfaces, petiole 0.8–2.0 cm long, sparsely pubescent. Inflorescence terminal solitary cyme. Bracts foliaceous, ovate, 2.3 × +0.9 mm +, densely pubescent at margin but few hairs on both surfaces. Flower solitary, 2.8 × +2.1 cm +, pendulous, blue, terminal, pedicels +4–5 mm +long, porrect, later deflexed. Hypanthium 0.4 × +0.3 mm +, outer surface densely pubescent. Calyx 5, adnate to ovary, 6.3–7.2 × +1.3–16 mm +; calyx teeth 5, subulate, apex acute, margin crenate, densely pubescent on margins. Corolla tube campanulate, blue or lilac, 5-lobed; corolla lobes, 4.6–5.8 × +2.7–3.3 mm +, apex acute to acuminate. margin wavy, densely ciliate. Stamens 5, filaments dilated, c. +4.5 mm +long, base triangular, densely hairy, anther 1.4 × 1.0 mm long, coherent, bright yellow. Ovary globose, c. +1.3 mm +, glabrous, shiny green; style 1, 11.0 to +13 mm +long, stigmatic lobes 3; two different lengths (two small c. +0.4 mm +) and one large c. +0.8 mm +). Capsule ovoid to ellipsoid, c. 0.5 × +0.2 mm +long; seeds many, ellipsoid. + + +Phenology +:—August-September. + + + + +Etymology +:—The specific epithet +‘densiciliata’ +is derived from its densely hairy margin of the calyx lobes. + + + +FIGURE 5. +A comparative figure of three + +Campanula +species + +: +A +.; +B +. + +Campanula densiciliata +Acharya Balkrishna, Harsh Singh, B.Joshi & R.K.Mishra + +; +C. +; +D +. + +Campanula latifolia + +L.; +E +.; +F +. + +Campanula argyrotricha +Wall + +ex A.DC. + + + +Habitat & Distribution +:— + +Campanula densiciliata + +grows in humus-rich soil in the dense forest undergrowth of + +Rhododendron +Linnaeus (1753: 392) + +, along with plant species of + +Fragaria nubicola +(Hook.f.)
