Date: 12 July 2013
Place: Kothagiri, Nilgiris, TN
Alt.: 2000 m asl

This tree is Glochidion neilgherrense Wight of Euphorbiaceae.

I think the accepted name will be Phyllanthus candolleanus (Wight & Arn.) Chakrab. & N.P.Balakr., J. Econ. Taxon. Bot. 33: 713 (2009) as per World Checklist of Selected Plant Families (Phyllanthus candolleanus (Wight & Arn.) Chakrab. & N.P.Balakr. syn. Phyllanthus neilgherrensis (Wight) Müll.Arg., Flora 48: 385 (1865), Glochidion candolleanum (Wight & Arn.) Chakrab. & M.Gangop.)

Yes it is Phyllanthus candolleanus (Wight & Arn.) Chakrab. & N.P.Balakr. [Synonym: Glochidion candolleanum (Wight & Arn.) Chakrab. & M.Gangop.]

Thanks a lot … for the current nomenclature.

A further reply:
“Whatever identifications I made as Glochidion candolleanum (syn. G. neilgherrense) are actually referable to Glochidion hohenackeri.
Sorry for the mistake and inconveniences caused. Please inform everybody.”

This tree is from Panchmari of Satpura Tiger Reserve.
Photographed on 24-8-09
I think it is Glochdion johnstonei
Family Euphorbiaceae
Experts please confirm the ID

Yes, It is Gochidion johnstonii

Sorry for wrongly spelt johnstonei as johnstonii. The correct name is Glochidion hohenackeri (Muell.-Arg.) Bedd. var johnstonei (Hook.f.) T. Chakrab. & Gangop.

‘Glochidion hohenackeri ‘ is called ‘Bhoma’ ‘भोमा’ in Marathi.

POWO gives distribution only in SW India.

Maybe Glochidion hohenackeri (Müll.Arg.) Bedd. only as per images and details herein.

Glochidion candolleanum.

I find fruits to be different as per images at Glochidion candolleanum
Pl. have a re look.

The styles are of G. candolleanum and not of G. hohenackeri which are button-like.
