I have updated eFI (efloraofindia) page on Avicennia (Pl. click). Attempts have been made to incorporate most of the species available in India & nearby areas with details & keys directly or through links as far as possible. It’s quite possible that there may be some discrepancy in the accepted names & synonyms taken from other links. Species discussed so far in efloraofindia are given at the bottom of the page in the form of links against Subpages. On clicking them one can see all the details. If someone can provide complete list of Indian species with source references it will be wonderful. Any comments/ corrections are welcome.
I have added the list of Indian species.
Thanks a lot, …
Avicennia alba Blume is an accepted species as per WCSP & as per the following documents:
CRC World Dictionary of Medicinal and Poisonous Plants: Common Names … By Umberto Quattrocchi (2012- Details)
Plant Wealth of the Lower Ganga Delta: An Eco-taxonomical Approach By Kumudranjan Naskar (1993- Details)

Yes … it is also accepted name in the document Karthikeyan et al.2009. It is the TPL 2013 which mentions it as a synonym.
Thanks, …, We have to also check the underlying source in TPL (as it differs many time & may point towards inaccuracy in TPL).
I am herewith sending a copy of my publication of Family Avicenniaceae for Avicennia page with images of species in efloraofindia : 3 posts by 1 author.
Pl. go through Avicennia page with images of species (done by me) in efloraofindia. If you find any mis-identification, pl. let us know. If anybody can send images of other species of this genera (for incorporation in the website), if any, it will be really nice. Also, if anybody is interested to take up the activity of inserting images on efloraofindia pages from efloraofindia posts, pl. let us know. Both the species are correct identification.
