The second name seems to be in Tamil, inadvertently listed as a Kannada name, but I am not sure. I will check and get back to you as soon as possible. Perhaps mullukkarai is actually mullu kaare = ಮುಳ್ಳು ಕಾರೆ … because Canthium coromandelicum has following names: kaare gida, kaare hannu gida, kaare mara, kaare mullu gida … interpretation is correct.
‘ Mullukkarai is actually mullu kaare = ಮುಳ್ಳು ಕಾರೆ’. ‘Mullukarai’ is Tamil name (As I spent my professional career in Chennai I know Tamil also). Hence you may use it as mullu kaare = ಮುಳ್ಳು ಕಾರೆ in Kannada. . References:
