Ficus virens for validation :: Mumbai :: ARKMAR-01- Set 2 : 1 post by 1 author.
I have 2 ficus plants, both of which were named as Ficus virens, when I bought them from the nursery. However, their leaf shape is different.
Requested to please validate if both of them (named as Set 1 and Set 2 attached) are F. virens?


Only Set 2 looks like Ficus virens.

Saw this Ficus at Devgad, Konkan, MH in May 2017. Requested to please provide ID.

It seems to be Ficus virens


Thanks … for the ID. I guessed as much.



A strangling fig or banyan fig. Deciduous; leafless for about a week in September, October or November.
Lenticels often in horizontal lines. Bark exudate rapid and copious.
Stipules about 0.5-1.5 cm long. Petiole with two ridges and three grooves on the upper surface. Leaf blades about 8-19 x 3.5-9 cm. Small oil dots visible with a lens, more conspicuous on the upper than on the lower surface of the leaf blade. Petiole producing a fairly clear watery to slightly watery-milky exudate.
Male flowers produced around the ostiole. In the female flower, the stigma linear, lateral and tuberculate. Bracts at the base of the fig, three, persistent. Lateral bracts not present on the outside of the fig body.
Figs sessile or pedunculate, peduncles up to 6 mm long, figs +/- globular, depressed globular or pyriform, about 8-13 x 7-12 mm. Orifice closed by interlocking apical and internal bracts.

I have these names for Ficus virens. Perhaps somebody can give us the correct scripted equivalent. Some may not be correct, perhaps none is but the correct Malayalam must be close to at least one or two.
“Bakri”, “Chakkila”, “Cherala”, “Cherla”, “Chuvannal”, “Itti”, “Jati”.
Incidently I also have these Ficus names that need validation:
കല്ലരയാല്‍ Kallarayal -> Ficus arnottiana (Miq.) Miq.

For validation.


It may be Ficus amplissima Smith (= Ficus tsiela Roxb) or Ficus tsjakela Burm.f., but this tree is wild, frequent around Bangalore and lofty


Ficus tsjakela Burm.f.


It looks more like Ficus virens.
In F. tsjakela the receptacles are much smaller.


Our member, … from Bangalore who has covered all the trees in Lalbagh has suggested Ficus virens var. virens Aiton, Mountain Fig Tree.
It could be Ficus virens Aiton var. virens, on searching.

is it Ficus lacor.. it is mentioned as F.virens and white fig.. plz identify

Ficus virens.


I think this is Ficus virens Aiton., because Ficus lacor Buch.-Ham. has a natural distribution in Kumaon eastward to southern Hills.
**F. lacor auct. non Buch.-Ham. is the synonym of F. virens Aiton. However, sometimes (Ghafoor, 1985) F. lacor Buch.-Ham. is treated as conspecific to F. virens Aiton.

The leaves are large, broad ovate, with long petiole [7cm] 
Lamina about 21 cm long,10cm broad.
from the illustation in flora of Maharashtra [vol four B page 371 ] by Almeida
it seems to be Ficus procera var crassiramea
please confirm

I endorse … ID – Ficus virens


ficus virens


Ficus virens for me also…. however, if you can locate its fruits and they are without any stalk (attached directly to the branch) and if the bark is somewhat greenish then it is Ficus amplissima. however, from the clicks it surely is Ficus virens.


Thank you all for the possible ID……

and other images here:

I am not convinced. Are they (all images) from the same plant & time ?
Too me texture, thickness, venation etc. look different in image with figs.

This is Ficus virens, most planted species in Delhi. In Maharashtra it is called as Ambapayar (Fig tree with leaves like mango leaves). With different climates and habitats, fig colour varies when immature (Green, Red, White, Dark Purple).

The photographs are temporarly identified as Ficus virens complex belongs to Ficus middletonii Chantaras.

Authorized book of Nepal government says the elevation as 8-200 m.


Was it planted ?


I think it is wild in the river side in a village. Villagers won’t bother to plant a single tree I guess.


Photographs are near to Ficus virens Aiton or Ficus middletonii Chantaras.


This should be Ficus virens.


1.  Ficus middletonii Chantaras. is not listed in Nepal and I could not find any synonym for it matching .

2. Ficus virens elevation 80-200 mt. only and not matching.

Ficus tinctoria G.Forst. ??


I think different from tinctoria …, ant varieties are there like this,


Ficus virens most likely


Actually the leaves resemble F. racemosa, but the single fig on the end of a twig is mysterious. Ficus racemosa often have these kinds of insect galls.


Or possibly that fruit is from another plant..


leaves were different from F racemosa and  fruits were not growing near the tree trunk. There were many such fruits (as in photograph)
…, It didn’t look like F.tinctoria either.

This should be Ficus virens W. T. Aiton (F. virens var. virens), this is a dynamic species behaves differently in various habitats, I think for this plant fruiting was at an end.
As per my view leaf arrangements in F. virens are similar to Madhuca sp. and Terminalia bellirica clustering on branch tips.


do you have any more images of this plant to share?


Unfortunately I have these three pics only.
Will be visiting that forest area again this year. Will capture more photos and get back to you all.

That will lead final ID ma’am, We will wait for your posts,

What are the species listed in your area?


Ficus albipila (Miq.) King ?


I think it does not have distribution in the area as per IBP and FoPI and Synopsis of the Genus Ficus L. (Moraceae) in India Lal Babu Chaudhary*, Jana Venkata Sudhakar, Anoop Kumar, Omesh Bajpai, Rinkey Tiwari and G. V. S. Murthy- Taiwania, 57(2): 193-216, 2012.

Also I think it does not match as per POWO and GBIF specimens.


Seems Ficus glomerata


But it looks different as per images at
https://efloraofindia.com/2011/03/01/ficus-racemosa/


Ficus lacor


Yes Bro


It may be somewhat possible as per POWO specimen and GBIF specimen, but I am not sure.

I am unable to find the description on the net, to check further.
Maybe the experts help us in confirming or otherwise.


I think it is Ficus lacor, although as you say there is little documentation to go on and some of the images online are possibly wrong. Leaves are like Ficus virens and figs are tomentose. I have found a very few in northern western ghats, maybe less than 10 individuals. The habit is also similar to Ficus virens.


Can we get some description about this species from anywhere?


I think Ficus virens var. lambertiana…..


I could not find any description for this on the net.
However, specimens are available in GBIF (three- no figs seen) and FoPI (one- with fig- This being low resolution, it is difficult to see the details of the hairiness of the figs).
If some description is there, it will help.



I found many plants in many part of Madhya Pradesh. This plant is shown as F. lambertiana by Pradip Krishen in his book JUNGLE TREES OF CENTRAL INDIA. many literater shown it is a syn of Ficus virens. I am attaching the photocopy of the page of  Pradip Krishen book and my one pic.



Details from Pradip Kishan’s book are attached..
