Unknown from Amboli Ghat: It could be Dimorphocalyx lawianus (Muell.-Arg.) Hook.f (If the tip of branch does not end with male flowers), and if it is ending with than it could be Blachia denudata Beth. (Family Euphorbiaceae); Please send me some more picture of this plant it will be nice. It is Dimorphocalyx galbellus Thwaites var. lawianus (Hook.f.) Chakrab. & N.P.Balakr.

Bot. name: Dimorphocalyx lawianus – here are mine from Matheran taken in October 2010. Dimorphocalyx lawianus (Muell.-Arg.) Hook. is the synonym of Dimorphocalyx ramiflorus (Graham ) Almeida (comb. nov.). An explanation of this neotype is given in Dr. Almeida’s flora.
Dimorphocalyx lawianus:
… this is the female flower showing enlarged calyx. The male flowers have a simple calyx, hence the name dimorpho calyx. Both unisexual flowers are seen on the same plant (monoecious).
Other relevant information is as follows:
Place : Matheran
Habit: A small Tree
Features: The calyx lobes were increadibly large.
Would appreciate identification. Dimorphocalyx lawianus I remember … has shown us flowers of this on Sep 20th. … had responded with description of it. You may search the earlier mails for it. Incredibly strange looking fruit…
That is Dimorphocalyx lawianus and the flower that you are holding, …, is male.

Sharing male flower images. Both male and female are growing very closely, only 03 meters distance. it is Dimorphocalyx species Yes, appears close as per images at Yes, it is , thank you very much for ID my plant and providing ID link, It appears to be Dimorphocalyx glabellus var. lawianus (Hook.f.) Chakrab. & N.P.Balakr., as per keys in BSI Flora of India. it is not D.glabellus, the leaves have impressed veins, not found in glabellus; the ovary is very hispid; the calyx lobes shape is also different; it must be some other species, This is what BSI Flora of India says: Leaves elliptic, oblong to obovate or oblanceolate, rounded, obtuse to acute at base, shallowly glandular-crenulate (particularly in young leaves), crenate-serrate to entire along margins, acuminate to acute or often obtuse to rounded at apex, 4.5 – 19 x 2 – 7 cm, thinly coriaceous to chartaceous; lateral nerves 6 – 14 pairs; petioles 2 – 20 mm long.
The identification is correct. Accepted name: Tritaxis glabella (Thwaites) R.Y.Yu & Welzen var. praerervisa Chakrab. & G.Krishna. Great identifying!!
Yes, it is, thank you very much for ID my plant,
