unknown host plant – ID pls: I have found this plant at Sodpur, Kolkata. It might be a host plant of any Butterfly / Moth as from Sept to Nov I’ve seen it’s leaves are not at all intact. all are partially eaten; but could not able to find any caterpillar.


This is a species of Jambul [Syzygium].

Syzygium cumini—for sharing and validation: My pic of Jamun, taken at ambyvalley rd.lonavala /mulshi in may12.


This looks like S.alternans. Please check the archives of this group for my photographs of this.


Leaves look like those of Syzygium salicifolium (syn: Syzygium alternans Miq. ex Duthie), but I am not sure of fruits as I could not find any images on net for this.
Pl. confirm
