Flora of Andaman6-281210-PKA1: is it Sonorecia apetala? Nice catch … You seem to have enjoyed two great trips in short span. Waiting to see many more Andaman species. Yes does look like Sonneratia but alba may be. I think Sonneratia apetala It is Sonneratia alba, as in Sonneratia apetala only four sepals are seen.
  Sonneratia alba@Devbagh beach resort.: Sonneratia alba@Devbagh beach resort. Please validate. This could be Sonneratia caseolaris.
Do you have more images of flowers with more filaments intact?
The base of filaments in S. caseolaris is distinctly pink while they are completely white in S.alba. Though Sonneratia caseolaris is also reported from the area. I think this one is S.alba only as suggested by you. Adding some more pictures.
Yes. This is S. alba. Sonneratia sp. May be Sonneratia alba..? As the petals are not seen, may not be S. caeseolaris. it is Sonneratia alba J. Sm. in Rees, Cycl. 33, 1819; Cl. in Hook.f., Fl. Brit. India 2: 580, 1. Calyx lobes 6-8, tube angular; Petals 6-8; Stigma not umbrella- shaped…..S. alba
1. Calyx lobes 4, tube not angular; Petals absent; Stigma umbrella-shaped… S. apetala actually the petals are very narrow and white in S. alba; whereas it is pinkish in S.caesolaris.     Fwd: Sonneratia griffithi from Ratnagiri ? : 4 posts by 2 authors. Attachments(4)- 1 Mb or more. Some of the snaps from Ratnagiri. ID please. Sonneratia griffithi I think Thanks …. It is one the threatened species. This seems to be Sonneratia alba and not S. griffithii. I have confirmed this with my friend Dr. Mahesh Shindikar, who worked on mangroves of Maharashtra for his Ph. D.

Requesting to please validate the ID (Sonneratia alba) of this mangrove captured in a small village near the Konkan coast, Devgad, Maharashtra in May 2014.
The pics are of 2 different plants at 2 different locations, though close to each other. This could be Sonneratia alba or S. caseolaris. The very visible difference between them is colour of stamens (stamen bunch is not seen in any of the image). In case of S. caseolaris, the stamen base is crimson in colour.
Hence the id cannot be conclusive. Thank you again for the information…
I could not locate any flower with stamens which could help in ID… S. caseolaris
This is Sonneratia alba Sm. only as per images herein.
Does not match with images of Sonneratia caseolaris at http://www.flowersofindia.Apple%20Mangrove.html Stamens bunch is seen in this picture: Sonneratia alba_Padel8.JPG. The base is not crimson.
Is it not Sonneratia griffithii.
No. Sonneratia alba Sm. only
