Is the ID correct?
Looks different from images at Smilax aspera
I am also not convinced ! Check other species in efi site.
Now we have images on all pages of smilax
Pl. check with Smilax zeylanica
Need your help for ID of this please.
Smilax zeylanica and Smilax ovalifolia are two different sp., is it ?
FOI giving both names for same plant.
Both are separate species according to the Plant List What about the ID of above post? I think may be more closer to Smilax ovalifolia Roxb. ex D.Don rather than Smilax zeylanica L. (based on the relative size of the umbel and pedicels therein) It could be … This has been verified as Smilax wallichii Kunth ! Wrong ID by the Garden !

Location: Gurje Bhanjyang, Kathmandu , Nepal
Altitude: 6000 ft.
Date: 6 June 2015 Please check for Smilax (Smilaceae) species.
I did check but could not come to the conclusion.
What is the habit of the plant? Herbaceous climbing plant. Thin forest of short trees. Shady. ‘Herbaceous climbing plant’
Smilax seems to be the best possibility. Leaf and inflorescence (type) are good matches for Smilax. Is it Smilax elegans subsp. elegans (accepted name) ??
Altitude and fruiting season is as per the following link.
Is this also the same plant from different location ?? Location: Ranikot, Bhaktapur, Nepal Date : 10 May 2014

IDENTITY OF A SPINY CLIMBER : 9 posts by 6 authors. Attachments (2) Attaching two images of a climber whose main stem is spiny. Can any one identify the species please?
Smilax sp. Possibly Heterosmilax? seems to be what was once called “aw green climber”, a smilax sp. once for a few years grown /shown in the greenhouses at NYBG. they were studying the taxonomic revisions. don’t have time to track those things now. i am sure some botany professor will know Looks like Smilax sp. Smilax wallichii Location : Reiek, Mizoram Date : 07-09-218
Habit : Climber
Habitat : Wild Smilax wallichiiKunth Pl. send a high resolution image, to show the petiole clearly.
To me it looks different from images at Smilax wallichii Smilax ovalifolia Roxb. ex D.Don may be possible as per images and details herein and as per comparative images at Smilax
On further scrutiny, maybe also Smilax lanceifolia Roxb. 1 high resolution image. ID was from Smilax expert from Nepal ! Maybe. Both appear to be quite close. We have to find the difference between the two. Can you ask him ? . MS,Jan.,2021/10 Smilax sp. for id Date : 30-06-2018
Habit : Climber
Habitat : Wild
I think it may be Smilax lanceifolia Roxb. as per images and details herein. This may also be the same as in ‘MS, Jan.,2021/09 Smilax sp. for I’d.’
