What hill, …, Chittagong? If yes, check Paramignya citrifolia Hook. f.
Hill forest I wanted to know if it is in Chittagong, and species distribution –
Since, filaments are free, and spine short I selected no.1 above.
P. scandens (Griff); Synonyms : Limonia citrifolia Roxb. (1832), Citrus scandens Griff. (1854), P. citrifolia Oliver (1861), P. griffithi Hook (1875) I understand Sourav, we all have our priorities to be taken care of. About Paramignya I copied what I found in FBI (attached here).

Have some pictures in details of this climber plants Attached here the full description of P. citirfolia Hook. f.. in FBI.
Bangal Plants refers only one Paramignya – citrifolia
