Myrtaceae may be possible. But I have not come across this specimen.. 


Is it some syzygium species ? Pl. help.


Any possibility of Syzygium caryophyllatum (L.) Alston since it has got distribution in Myanmar ?

Syzygium balsameum, a rare species


Yes we are also of the same opinion. Tried to collect again, but the location was untraceable.


It looks like Syzygium polyanthum


… may be correct. Thank you. What do the leaves smell like?

Could you help identifying this plant.
Tree upto 20 m, Fruits edible, yellow when ripe.
Place:240 m, foothills of Chure, Chitwan
Date: November 2, 2018.

It should be Syzygium cumini (L.) Skeels.


It may be some species of Syzygium, i do not think it matches with cuminii.

Yes. I agree with …


No other matching according to the efn. According to the Nepali name it seems so but cannot confirm.

Syzygium nervosum A.Cunn. ex DC. ??
Cleistocalyx operculatus (Roxb.) Merr. & L.M.Perry

I do not think so. Pl. see

It might be Syzygium kurzii.


I think it is Syzygium balsameum as per images and details herein.
