Key metadata

Impatiens

Pakistan

As published but wit the addition of Impatiens chinensis. The species was included on the basis of a report in GBIF (21 Aug 2021), but the report appears to be based on identification of the host of a mycorrhizal fungus. It is included because it is present, based on specimen reports, in India and Nepal so may be present in Pakistan. The report of I. pallida from GBIF is not reflected in the key. Impatiens pallida is a North America taxa, There are no specimen-based records of its occurrence in South Asia. Again, the report for Pakistan appears to reflect identification of a mycorrhizal fungus, not a plant specimen.
