The authors describe Euphorbia sankarensis, E. bahalita and E. tortilis var. mysorensis from southern India. They examine field plants and material maintained in a garden, comparing stems, cyathia, capsules and seeds with E. tortilis and E. costatoalata. The publication provides diagnoses, nomenclatural types, illustrations and a table distinguishing the taxa. Conclusions about their distinctness are based on morphology.
