Rajnagar, Kumarghat, Tripura Kindly identify Pl. check comparative images at fruits remind me of pongamia It is climber, it is not tree It is not Pongamia, it is probably Derris Ok, thanks. Do you know the species in your area? … has reported three species from his area, which is close to your i.e. Derris lushaiensis, D.monticola and D.robusta are recorded in Mizoram. Of the three species stated by him, I did not get any image or herbarium specimen on net for Derris lushaiensis Derris robusta looks different as per images and details at Derris monticola also looks different at https://www.gbif.org/species/5350323 Forest Plants of Eastern India By Amal Bhusan Chaudhuri (1993) mentions five species with keys. But to me keys appears to be confusing and not matching with GBIF specimens. Pl. check Derris microptera Benth. at GBIF Derris ferruginea Bentham in Miquel as per FOC illustration & GBIF Derris marginata (Roxburgh) Bentham in Miquel as per FOC illustration Derris cuneifolia at GBIF Aganope polystachya (Benth.) Thoth. & D.N.Das as per GBIF I think flowers would have helped. Thank you very much The area where my specimen was found(North Tripura) is near to Mizoram These are mentioned with reference to Tripura Derris acuminata Derris trifoliata Paraderris cuneifolia Represented by 5 species in the study area (Deb, 1981); out of which 3 species are lianas D. cuneifolia D. ferruginea D. marginata https://www.researchgate.net/publication/314371429_FIVE_NEW_ADDITIONS_OF_LIANAS_TO_THE_STATE_FLORA_OF_TRIPURA_INDIA Derris cuneifolia Derris marginata Derris trifoliata I have asked for photos of flowers |
