both Malayalam and English names are correct. One more name should be added ചേലമരം chealamaram ചേലമരം chealamaram… I hope you can help me with the source of the name. I could not find it mentioned in any of the resources that I refer to.
Flora of Chakrata- Schefflera for id 2012: it looks like Schefflera venulosa Thanks a lot … this seems to be S. venulosa..
Request Tree ID 157 – Siddarabetta, Karnataka – RA : Attachments (5). 11 posts by 6 authors. at an altitude 3000 ft
locals says its forest mango
stem smells like mango May be any Schefflera sp It is a species of Shefflera Probably Schefflera stellata
This would not be a tree standing by itself. Pls check, it should be epiphytic on another tree. Your first pic probably shows this In my opinion, it is Schefflera venulosa which occurs commonly in Deccan forests while S. stellata occurs in Nilgiris and Pulneys. I have collected this from Sidderabetta only in entire Tumkur District. It is Schefflera stellata for me I think this is Schefflera venulosa. We have very good population in semi-evergreen forests in Odisha.

ID Please I think it is Schefflera venulosa from Areliaceae, a monocot, but difficult to confirm without flowers and fruits,
now a days it may be in flowering or fruiting stage with white flowers or orange/ cheery read fruits

Family: Araliaceae I think it is Schefflera venulosa. . QUERY :: waghchawad (in Marathi); name for Schefflera elliptica:
Please validate whether the name waghchawad for Schefflera elliptica is वाघचवड OR should it be वाघचवडा. (Reference: Further Flowers of Sahyadri by Shrikant Ingalhalikar) Distribution: Taiwan (Lan Yü), Indo-China to N. Queensland as per WCSP
Thus there is no distribution of Schefflera elliptica in India. Many many thanks …; I have taken note of this fact long back.

Schefflera Species seen on 1st April,16 Schefflera venulosa? Seems to match with images of Schefflera venulosa (Wight & Arn.) Harms from the comparative images of Schefflera species Thanks …
Location: Pilot Baba Ashram, Bhaktapur , Nepal
Altitude: 5500 ft.
Date: 26 September 2016
Looks like could be a Schefflera. There are 3 listed for Nepal in the Enumeration: S.elata, S.impressa, S. venulosa.
S.impressa is now S.rhododendrifolia but from what I can tell, it does not seem to match this.
So this leaves S.elata and S.venulosa. The latter is recorded from 300-1800m. The former from 1800-2100m.
The pressed specimen images I have seen suggest this could be S.venulosa but nor sure.
Others are likely to be more familiar with this genus than I am.
Or any other suggestions.
The only Schefflera listed in ‘Flora of Kathmandu Valley’ is S.impressa from Phulchoki @ 2000m. Schefflera elata (Buch.-Ham.) Harms (accepted name) ???
I guess it is Schefflera venulosa (Wight & Arn.) Harms (accepted name)

Sorry, only these pictures. Apiaceae ? Could it be Apiaceae since it is a small tree about 12-15 ft.
Yes.

However branching & flowering pattern appears similar to those at Ferula jaeschkeana Vatke
This is shrub type about 4 ft plus height !
Araliaceae? Seems like something near Schfflera sp,
