Holboellia coriacea. Not sure of the specific epithet.

Thank you, sir, for your reply.
If it is Holboellia coriacea, I wonder, how Col. Collett missed it in FLORA SIMLENSIS?
Leaves are not matching in both the cases. I’ll check it again in July and will report back.

Pl. also check for some ‎Thottea species as looks similar to images at Thottea siliquosa & Thottea dalzellii

5 prishth loved are clearly visible in my photographs. But only 3 visible in Thottea.

Thanks, … I think something auto corrected in your reply.

I think id suggested by … in another thread as Sabia campanulata is correct as per
