I have some remarks/questions concerning these:

1. Your U.nayarii was reduced to synonymy with _U.uliginosa_ by Taylor,
the author of the most recent (and rather authoritative) monograph on
_Utricularia_. Do you still think it is distinct? 2. What is the
difference between your U.malabarica and _U.praeterita_? 3. Do you know
how Taylor thinks about your U.subramanii?

Kind regards
Jan
