Zehneria japonica (Thunb.) H.Y.Liu ??
Yes, …, as per images and details at Zehneria japonica
Fruits and seeds from same plant 20 November 2010. Do you think … shapes of fruit and seeds matches with the sketches of Z. bodinieri and flower image of Zehneria bodinieri (H.Lév.) W.J.de Wilde & Duyfjes ?? Flowers and fruits look similar.
I will go with Zehneria japonica (Thunberg) H. Y. Liu as per FoC illustration due to the length of the pedicle of female flowers/ fruits (also in comparison with male flowers) and shape of the leaves. Seed do not match with Bodinieri ? Fruits are also globose or oblong even as per keys in Flora of China. More images of same plant on 20 November 2020.
3 very high resolution images. . Fwd: Zehneria sp for Identification? Itanagar,Arunachal Pradesh. 18.11.16 : 5 posts by 1 author. Attachments (2) It is not Zehneria as per comparative images herein. Any idea about the family ? Do you have any other images? I guess only one sp. Zehneria japonica (Thunb.) H.Y.Liu has got distribution in Arunachal Pradesh and this must be the same sp. What do you think, …? I will check and get back to you. I think Zehneria japonica seems good match
