Dysoxylum gotadhora (Buch.-Ham.) Mabb. To me it looks different from Dysoxylum gotadhora by … at FOI: http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Cup-Calyx%20White%20Cedar.html It seems to be Meliosma arnottiana (Wight) Walp. of Sabiaceae.
I don’t think it matches with Dysoxylum flower images
Here are the fruits of the species of discussion. Attachments (2) This doesn’t look like Dysoxylum because the petals are hairy within. Doesn’t look Miliosma either due to the same reason
Please check plants in the family Sapindaceae. The fruits suggests that this could be a member of Sapindaceae
Thanks, … Now we can try again in finding the proper Id. |
