Abstract

A new species Anemone pindariensis discovered from the valley near Pindari Glacier of Western Himalaya, India is described and illustrated. This new species is closely related to A. rivularis, but differs from the latter in the sepal and stamen characters. A. pindariensis has densely hairy (vs. glabrous in A. rivularis), rounded to elliptic to oblong (vs. ovate to obovate), 4–5 (vs. 5–8) sepals, greenish-yellow sepals (vs. white-blue sepals of A. rivularis), circinnately arranged staminodes around the stamens (vs. absence of staminodes), densely hairy filaments (vs. glabrous) and oblong (vs. ellipsoid or ovoid) anthers.
