Same location on 20 June 2017. It could be a Symplocos sp. Symplocos dryophila C. B. Clarke or Symplocos sumuntia Buch.-Ham. ex D. Don ??? For Symplocos dryophila C. B. Clarke, pl. see illustration at
For Symplocos sumuntia Buch.-Ham. ex D. Don, pl. see

To me does not match with anyone, if we go by these images.
Finally flowers after a long wait ! Do you think it is matching ? Pl. check with high resolution specimen of Symplocos pyrifolia at https://www.kew.org/herbcatimg/158300.jpg
To me appears close.

Does it match wit Re: SK466 31 MAR-2017:ID ??
Mid-rib on leaf of S. Pyrifolia is bulging but in this case pressed.
I do not find much difference.

Another Symplocos !
According to the elevation and phenology, could it be one of
