For me, the tree matches with Vitex leucoxylon L.f.
Please confirm.
It looks like Vitex altissima [Balage] to me. Please check.
Vitex altissima is the name comming to mind too… This one is surely Vitex altissima.
The plant looks like a Vitex sp.
Concur. Sending one of my photographs for comparison. Vitex altissima undoubtedly !!
This is called in Tamil as ‘Mayiladi’ and in Malayalam as ‘Naviladi’ (hope i am right). The meaning for both is ‘Foot of Peacock’ in allusion to the shape of 3-foliolate leaf together with the winged petiole.
Vitex altissima in malayalam “Mayilellu“. I am not sure about the name Naviladi because there is a difference in names in different places of
Kerala. Thanks …, for the correction as well as Malayalam name. ‘Naviladi’ is a Kannada name as per the link: http://envis.frlht.org.in/botanical_search.Vitex+altissima+L.F
It looks like Quassia amara to me. I will go with …, for Vitex altissima rather than those for Quassia amara by …, as per the images herein.
Id requested!
This is a tree up to 20 m tall. It’s without spines. Jhapa Eastern Nepal. 100 m asl.
Date: 7 Nov 2020. Vitex altissima?
Looks exact match and a new sp. for Nepal ! thank you for pointing this out and correcting me. I thought it was some species of Rutaceae. Tree produces berries during September-December. Flowering: April-May .   Lamiacae: Vitex altissima L.f.: 2 images- 1 high res. location/date (both): University of Agricultural Sciences campus, Bangalore, July 1997 .
ID KNR 06/2/24: 1 image.
Please identify this tree from Kannur in Kerala. 12/2/24 Image is blurred. Any other pictures showing clear images of inflorescence? It reminds me of Melicope lunu-ankenda (Gaertn.) T.G.Hartley [Rutaceae]. Would be nice to have a clearer image though. Vitex altessima L.f. Check with this
Lack of serrations on leaflet and wingless rachis looks like Vitex pinnata I think … is right as per images at
