Pl. id following flower,
It is a climber.
Photographed at Mana village, Uttaranchal on 28/07/2008

The picture matches fairly close to Scutia myrtina (Syn.S.indica) of Rhamnaceae. Other characters need to be checked.


Looks different from Scutia myrtina

Apocynaceae ??


I hope it is Vincetoxicum sp….

Vincetoxicum auriculatum (Royle ex Wight) Kuntze if elevation is 2000-3700m.

Cynanchum auriculatum is convincing; please validate.


I think it is Cynanchum auriculatum because corona tips are straight and corolla divided half of its length.
