Sharing the flowers and fruits of Phyllanthus myrtifolius from my pot garden
Pics captured in June 2013
Requesting to please confirm ID..

This could be Phyllanthus multiflorus of Phyllanthaceae family.

Yes, it is

How does one distinguish betweem Phyllanthus myrtifolius and Phyllanthus multiflorus. Is there any key available?
FoI does not have Phyllanthus multiflorus but has Phyllanthus myrtifolius and the pics match.
Could anyone please provide some more information?

when I replied earlier I hadn’t seen … post and I was confirming the original question which was ” is it Phyllanthus myrtifolius” .
Now I can see this is confusing the issue.
To me it is surely P. myrtifolius. 

May be this link of some use

Phyllanthus Species: Scientific Evaluation and Medicinal Applications
I think this is Phyllanthus myrtifolius only, with narrow inverted-lanceshaped leaves. Also the flowers with stalks, are nearly as long as the leaves.

On the other hand, Phyllanthus multiflorus has broader elliptic leaves. Also flowers with the stalks are much smaller than the leaves:

Please kindly ID this small shrub found in a garden in Thane, flowering & fruiting….pictures taken on 27th Feb,15.

I think this is Phyllanthus buxifolius 

After Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Goa, Phyllanthus myrtifolius has reached Maharashtra (it is a new record for the State).

It is planted in a Municipal Garden in Thane…..

Could it be Phyllanthus myrtifolius?

Yes, it is usually cultivated for hedges; a native of Sri Lanka.

Ok, I agree Phyllanthus myrtifolius. I send you my picture for comparison..
