Wow indeed macro sepals. Nicely captured!

nice and you nailed the diagnostic feature

do you have pictures of fruits from any other year or other trees?

Eugenia macrosepala Duthie is a syn. of Eugenia roxburghii DC. as per Catalogue of Life and your post does not matches with other images at Eugenia roxburghii
It is E roxburghii. I was accompanying … then to Mainapi Falls.
Thanks, … But to me these do not match with other images at Eugenia roxburghii
Looks matching

This is Eugenia macrosepala, was previously under E.bracteata, but now it has been segregated out to a distinct species in our recent paper (Shareef & Santhosh 2020, The genus Eugenia L in India). 

We have recently separated Eugenia macrosepala Duthie from Eugenia roxburghi DC. and  reinstated its status. The image attachments are of E. macrosepala.

Thanks …, Shrikant Ingalhalikar had identified it as Eugenia macrosepala, but because of the misleading synonymy, I had put it as Eugenia roxburghii.
