Date: October, 2005 Very nice picture …! Ohhh….sorry sorry sorry!! Thanks for pointing out the error … don’t know how I wrote here S. punduana which is very common in Arunachal. Apologies!! 😛 . Plants from Northeast Tour 2017- Saurauia armata for validation, Assam : 6 posts by 4 authors. Attachments (6) This small tree was recorded from a dense forest in Biswanath District, Assam..
I hope this is Saurauia armata
Yes! Saurauia armata for me too. You might have encountered Saurauia napaulensis DC. also at higher elevations, characterised by blackish leaves. But they are taller than S. punduana and S. armata. Yes …, I have come across S. napaulensis, in Northeast as well in Western Himalayas. Why colour of the flower looks different in 2nd image ? Is there any mix up ? No …, all pics belong to one individual, here in second image petals are missing…!! .
