Found in Velneshwar in Konkan in the month of April. one more ID please.

It is a Vitaceae Member.

Based on the curved pedicels, i think the 3rd set of pictures belong to Cissus vitigenia (Vitaceae). But need leaf characters to confirm the id.

Vitaceae member ID Please

Cissus vitigenea?….doubtful

Cissus species in eFloraofindia (with details/ keys from published papers/ regional floras/ FRLHT/ FOI/ Biotik/ efloras/ books etc., where ever available on net) 

This Species in TN state

As a non botanist member what I could apprehend about this species is-

  • stout shrub or climber
  • terete stem, not glabrous
  • leaves not glabrous, simple, more than 3 lobed, dentate
  • tendril simple, leaf opposed
This can lead to Cissus vitiginea L. (you my check “bud” pic at http://www.plantekey.com/plants/vitaceae/cissus-vitiginea), ignoring Ampelocissus tomentosa (Roth.) Planch.
Please wait for botanist members..
