Abstract
Hedgehog cucumber (Cucumis dipsaceus Ehrenb. ex Spach) (family Cucurbitaceae) is a native of Saudi Arabia which was introduced to India and is now reported to be occurring as a ruderal in some parts of peninsular India. The authors in a recent survey of Coimbatore in Tamil Nadu came across two populations of this species. Its germplasm was collected along with the passport data and conserved in the long term storage of the National Gene Bank at New Delhi. Herbarium specimens were also collected at source and deposited in the National Herbarium of Cultivated Plants at ICAR-NBPGR, New Delhi.
