Corylus jacquemontii Decne. … (family: Betulaceae)
1 AUG 12
Govind Ghat – Ghangaria trail 5800 – 10160 ft



/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Ulmus%20wallichiana%20-14-.JPG

Ulmus wallichiana: Ulmus wallichiana Planch., also known as the Kashmir Elm.
This tree is not common in Uttarakhand. I know only two places in the state where it is present.
This picture was taken by …, IFS, UKFD from Mundali Village, Dehradun District.


If I am not wrong, your plant does not seem to be Ulmus wallichiana. your plant has much longer and sharper teeth than met in Ulmus wallichiana.
I have photographed both U. wallichiana and U. villosa from Kashmir and will upload them soon.
I suspect your plant may be Corylus
bomengids

Perhaps another crucial difference is the number of lateral nerves which are 7-8 pairs in Corylus colurna as against 15-18 pairs in Ulmus wallichiana.


Accepted name now is Corylus jacquemontii for Himalayan plant


Yes sir, This is Corylus jaquemontii
