Acmella radicans (Jacq.) R.K. Jansen (Asteraceae) - a new angiosperm record for Bangladesh

A floristic survey was conducted throughout the Pablakhali Reserve Forests of Rangamati district of Bangladesh from May, 2014 to December, 2015. During this survey the representative specimens of almost all vascular plants available in this virgin forest were collected. After the critical taxonomic studies on the specimens of the family Asteraceae, few were finally identified as Acmella radicans (Jacq.) R.K. Jansen, which has been reported here as a new angiospermic record for Bangladesh.
