I had seen this large climbing shrub near Yana Rocks (Kumta region, North Karnataka).
Date/Time: 20-01-2011 / 04:45PM
Location: Yana, (Kumta region, North karnataka)
Habitat: Wild
Plant Habit: Climbing Shrub
Leaves opposite with short petiole, stem reddish brown.

This could be some Quisqualis species.
Please check out whether the flower turns red in colour I think we have only two species of Quisqualis in India
Q.malabarica & Q. indica
But this plant seems to be different from both

This is not Quisqualis.  For me it looks like one of the Wrightia species.

Did you observed any kind of latex in this climber?
I have an inkling of this to be an Apocynaceae member.

To me it is Quisqualis sp. (combretaceae). I dont see any probability for this being an Apocynacean.
Did you collect/get this from forests close to habitation where people interfere often? Did you see multiple individuals? And did you see any pink/red flowers at any point of time in the same or different individuals? Please check whether there is Quisqualis indica in any near by habitation and whether people from those area use to interfere forest often.

surely not Apocynaceae,, look like Quisqualis, but cannot say, have to dissect the flower for id. 

Quisqualis malabarica as per another thread.


A reply from another thread:
