Named To Honour
<p><em>Thalictrum dalzellii</em> was named so to honour Nicol Dalzell, who worked extensively in present-day northern Western Ghats and Konkan Region. It is a herb endemic to the Western Ghats of Maharashtra and Karnataka. The delicate flowers emerge between June and August. The flowers have no petals, but sport petal-like sepals. They are seen growing on steep hill slopes amongst grasses and rock crevices at altitudes ranging between 900 and 1,200 m.</p>
