This medium size tree?? (or a straggler) was recorded in wild from Chakrata area, I am not sure if this is from Combretaceae, and there is mingling up in the pics, still the fruits are visible to invite clues…
Please give your valuable opinion… It looks me Combretum roxburghii The key to the species leads on to Combretum album (syn. C. roxburghii) and the 5-winged sessile fruits are characteristic. It is however not a tree. Thanks …, this was not a tree as far as I remember…
Till I come back with some better images, I take this as C. roxburghii .. .
Fwd: Identify of this plant species BR4 : 6 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (1)
May I request you to identify these plant specimens. Where & when these pictures have been taken ? … species of Combretum ? Combretum species in eFloraofindia (with details/ keys from published papers/ regional floras/ FRLHT/ FOI/ Biotik/ efloras/ books etc., where ever available on net) This is collected from Jhargram, Western part of West Bengal. Thanks for your guidance. I shall check the literature and let you know. This plant is mentioned in the Prain, Bengal. Pl. 1: 482. 1903 as Combretum decandrum Roxb. (Iconotype: Roxburgh, Pl. Coromandel 1: 43, t. 59. 1796), which is, however, a later homonym of that of Jacq. 1760. The next available name is C. roxburghii Spreng. 1825, a new name applied for the Roxburgh’s plant. However, in my opinion, C. album Pers. 1805, based on a different type, is the name applicable for this species.

Both lianas or stranglers.
Unfortunately now flowers. Photograhed in fruiting season. Combretum roxburghii ??
Yes, Combretum roxburghii Spreng. is one possibility.
What are the species of Combretum reported from your area ? I would like to know from the experts that why the new name, Combretum album Pers., Syn. Pl. 1: 411. 1805, replacing the illegitimate name Combretum decandrum Roxb., Pl. Coromandel 1: 43, t. 59. 1796, non Jacq. 1760 is not acceptable? Why the name Combretum roxburghii Spreng., Syst. Veg. 2: 331. 1825, nom. nov. published much later is acceptable?
I am now in receipt of a clarification from an expert. good to know. never knew people in the past just named plants in the hope that it will be accepted. seems they were playing games? .   MS,Nov.,2021/78 Combretum roxburghii ? for id.: Location : Keifang Date : 30-03-2016
