Crateva sp. Looking close to Crateva formosensis.


Thanks, …, Crateva formosensis does not have distribution in India as per Catalogue of Life as well as no observation so far in efi.
To me it appears close to images at Crateva unilocularis Buch.-Ham 
Pl. check.

Crateva unilocularis for me as well.

Crateva sp., Capparaceae,


Compare Crateva unilocularis

Probably … is correct. However I still have to look for flowers next year. But for now with the fruits with a long peduncle, obovoid, with flecks. It falls near C. unilocularis. Even the habitat matches perfectly.
