Abstract

Leptodermis riparia R.Parker (Rubiaceae) is rediscovered after a gap of 90 years from its Type locality in the eastern part of Uttarakhand, Western Himalaya. Recent field studies have found two additional localities for this species in the state. All three populations were found in the riparian zone especially on rocky substrate rich in limestone. We observed that the Type locality of this species has been severely eroded due to a major flash flood in Kali river during 2013. In this article, we present a description, habitat characteristics, known distribution, and conservation status of L. riparia in the Western Himalaya. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
