On 11/10/09 in Ananthagiri HIll forest in Rangareddy district of Andhra Pradesh.


Correct spellings should be Aspidopterys cordata

On further checking, I found it matching with Aspidopteris cordata as per details below & as per Shrikant ji’s book:
(Flora of Eastern Ghats: Hill ranges of south east India By T. Pullaiah, D.Muralidhara Rao)
In view, I take this as final Id.

Photographed at my farm at Shahapur on Sunday (19.10.10). Please identify this climber. It had climbed to the top of one of my Chamoli [Bauhinia foveolata] trees [which itself has flower-buds]. Sending a few photographs – the last one is taken by my friend Jayesh Timbadia.


May be Bauhinia vahlii. Climber from Bauhinia having bigger leaf size.


Thank you … for you comments but the climber in question does not have 2-lobed leaves as is seen in most Bauhinias.


Here is some from me. Leaves are quite similar.


Aspidopteris cordata of Malpighiaceae. Watch for fruits of round samaras.
