As per efi thread : Cissampelos pareira and Stephania japonica belong to the family Menispermaceae
Both species are dioecious.
In Stephania leaves are glabrous as are the stem as well
In Cissampelos leaves and stem tomentose
In Stephania the petiole (leaf stalk) joins the leaf away from the edge / conspicuously peltate (resembles Cyclea peltata) generally triangular-rotund.
In Cissampelos the petiole joins the leaf close to the edge
In Stephania flowers arranged in stalked umbellate cymes
In Cissampelos Male inflorescences axillary, solitary or few fascicled, corymbose cymes and pubescent whereas, female inflorescences thyrsoid, narrow;
.

Pl. see various references at Cissampelos
Some mention Cissampelos pareira, while others mention Cissampelos pareira var. hirsuta.
GRIN gives Cissampelos pareira L. with no range in India.
Three efloras & most of the regional floras talk of Cissampelos pareira var. hirsuta only.
In view I shall be taking our species as Cissampelos pareira var. hirsuta only.
If there is some other view, pl. let me know.

Yes C. pareira var. hirsuta also according to Flora of India.

This is from a Govt. park and there was no name plate. Instead there was a plate bearing the name Argyreia nervosa. I was confused for a while. I am uploading the entire series of snaps I took there to show which one (leaves) belongs to Argyreia.
It is interesting that … has photographs of Cissampelos pareira with peltate leaves as in FoP while var. hirsuta of FoC does not have!

I think the name board is meant for the sapling (cordate leaves with acuminate tips), which looks like Argyreia nervosa.
The climber with flowers is C. pareira var. hirsuta.


Yes …


Very beautiful pics … Only the first picture belongs to the placard, as … have said.. thanks for posting..

Though keys are based on flowers (and you are lucky to have the plant flowering) a practical tip in non-flowering state are the leaves which are more broader than long, base cordate and pubescent on both surfaces.

This climber on fences, trees and shrubs is fairly common in Delhi. I thought it to be Cissampelos (leaves look similar without pubescence) till I saw its flowers. Unfortunately its floral structure does’nt permit me to even identify its family. Help in identification saught.

it may be species of Menispermaceae family ?// may some one of Cissampelos

That is what I also thought initially. As mentioned in my mail I had even identified it as Cissampelos pariera, but changed my mind after seeing flowers. There are female flowers with hairy ovary with trifid style with 3 stigmas. There is no trace of perianth. I could see just two bracts, one outside another subtending the ovary. I am not even able to place the family.


it is Cissampelos parriera female plant.
the reason why you could not observe the perianth parts is because the female flower in Cissampelos has only one sepal and one petal. the
male flower has 4 petals and 4 sepals.

also the bracts in flowering condition is small which become large and foliaceous in fruiting condition in female flower.
regarding the hariness it may not be a constant character. it changes according to ecological conditions of the region.


Thanks … I am happy my original identification stands. Thanks for providing details, I have subsequently checked from efloras.
Quite fragmentary information in Maheshwari’s Flora of Delhi plus trifid style confused me.

At my farm at Shahapur on Sunday. Would presume they are the male flowers of Cissampelos pareira.


To me they look female flowers. I am uploading one with male flowers separately.


In my observation there are two types of Cissampelos pareira in south India. One is having glabrus leaves and other is pubescent. But the floral characters are same. I have worked on it and finally abandoned. I would look it again when I will be back to India.


In India, if i am right, only the var. hirsuta has thus far been reported (leaves hirsute or glabrescent). If you check Flora of China, it reads as “Cissampelos pareira var. pareira, with glabrous leaves, was described from the West Indies and seems to be restricted to that region, whereas var. hirsuta is pantropical”. If this is the only difference between var. hirsuta and the typica, then your glabrous plant would be var. pareira, perhaps a new record to India.


I know it is the typical variety.  I thought it would have published from India.

If any publication in India has reported (and I know many have) C. pariera it automatically means we are refering to var. pariera. It is an automatically created name- an autonym. Only var. hirsuta needs to be mentioned described, and reported separately.

Thank you all for the response. Nidhan may be right, but let me point out the reason for my conclusion. Firstly, Flemingia macrophylla and Flemingia chappar Benth.  are different species, acording to Catalog of Life. And according to FOC:
1. Flemingia chappar Buchanan-Hamilton ex Bentham in Miquel, Pl. Jungh. 244. 1852.

Maughania chappar (Buchanan-Hamilton ex Bentham) Kuntze.
Shrubs, erect, ca. 1 m tall. Branchlets slender, densely brown villous. Leaves simple; stipules narrowly ovate, ca. 2 mm, deciduous; petiole ca. 1.5 cm, densely deciduous brown villous; leaf blade orbicular-cordate, 4-4.5 cm, papery or thinly leathery, glabrous or sparsely pubescent
Secondly, I could not get a good close shot of the flowers, and from my fuzzy pictures they appeared pea-shaped, so I looked for Flemingia species.
Thirdly, the leaves don’t look prominently peltate. I am attaching a picture to show that.
Maybe I will go and have a shot at the flowers again.
However, the plant did look like a climber, which was puzzling to me.

Flemingia chappar is an erect shrub. We have one image of it in eFI photographed in Rajaji National Park, Uttarakhand.
I dont see images here and in eFI as similar.


You were right! It is Cissampelos pareira only. I went today and photographed the flowers. I am attaching a pic.


that’s good am glad it was where you could get to it again. hope you took many pictures. secondly, do you ever take pics of the backside of the leaves?


Yes, I do click the back of the leaves, unless I forget to do it. Here is the one for this plant.

I think this is Cocculus hirsutus (L.) Diels as ided by … in another thread.


No way sir Ji, It’s not et all Cocculus, It’s Stephania or Cissampelos only,
I will wait for the expert comments,


Stephania only,


…, Cissampelos could be a possibility – I request … to show a close up of a leaf.


Other recipients:

I think it is Cissampelos.

We have only one species of Cissampelos so far in efi site: Cissampelos pareira var. hirsuta
I think it matches with this.

Plz id the climber, Thane, yeoor, 26 January

Looks like Cocculus hirsutus.

Stephania sp. Only Menispermaceae.
It could be Stephania japonica,


I think more likely to be Cocculus hirsutus (L.) Diels rather than Stephania japonica as per images and details herein.

I attached with Stephania only, …, for this pic.


Thanks … The leaves and general form of climber resembles the very commonly growing Cocculus hirsutus in that area where … has clicked the picture.
Requesting … to attach any other picture of the posted plant if available, else please revisit the site whenever next possible, and take close-up picture of one leaf of the plant, and post it here.

As per id by … in another thread, it is Cissampelos
We have only one species of Cissampelos so far in efi site: Cissampelos pareira var. hirsuta

Cissampelos pareira L. ??

Yes I got the ID from friends.


I am looking at Eflora as source of ID for my spotted plants in India. I could not find reference of some plants so need to post for ID help. The guidelines are look complicated. I am not botanist. But making collection of “Plants and Arthropods relationship” across India and mainly Sahyadri Mountain.
Thanking you.
If I give details like Like Date Place District State and type of habitat will be enough to inform with images?

Thanks, …, for your interest in Plants and Arthropods relationship.
Yes, it will be fine if you give details like Date Place District State and type of habitat
