Cuscuta is a common parasite in several parts of India. Of the Indian species, C. rcflexa Roxb. has a wide range of distribution extending sometimes up to 6000 ft. or even more above sea-level in the hills of South India (Gamble, 1921) as well as North India (Singh, 1933). All the Indian species of Cuscuta are described as annuals (Cooke, 1908) like most of the European species. Even though they are attached to perennial woody hosts, they die after flowering
