Habit : Wild id please:CR170113: Location: Pune University looks like Zizyphus xylopyrus I agree with … this is unarmed Zizyphus… This appears to be close to Ziziphus incurva Roxb. as per images and details herein. Fruit size looking quite big compared to Z. incurva. I think looking big because of the focus on the fruit. . (2021/May/13 ART 2) Ziziphus sp.?: 8 images. Date: 2021/May/09 Location: Varathamanathi Dam, Palani, Dindigul District, Tamil Nadu May I know the ID of this plant? Could it be Ziziphus sp.? Yes ! Check with Z. rugosa Checked the references given in EFI website: [ref1] Flora of Guntur District [ref2] Flora of Eastern Ghats As per [ref1], Z. rugosa is woody, armed straggler; thorns stout; branchlets rusty-tomentose; leaves orbicular, broadly elliptic, 8-15 x 5-10 cm, glabrous above, woolly below, obtuse, serrulate, base subcordate. As per [ref2] Z. rugosa is an armed woody straggler, up to 6m tall. Leaves orbicular-rotund, 4-6 x 2.5-5 cm, 5-nerved, base cordate, margin serrulate, apex rotund. In the photos, I couldn’t find thorns, and the leaves don’t seem (to my untrained eyes) woolly below (only [ref1] mentions woolly). I missed checking for both these details in the field. The leaves are not 5-nerved (only [ref2] mentions it). I also checked Z. glabrata, as it is mentioned as unarmed in both the references. As per [ref1], Z. glabrata is unarmed tree, up to 8m tall; leaves ovate to oblong-elliptic, 4-7 x 2.5-5 cm, glabrous or pubescent on the nerves beneath, obtuse or acute, crenate, base obtuse. As per [ref2], Z. glabrata is unarmed tree, up to 8m tall; wood brown; branchlets tomentose. Leaves ovate, elliptic, or elliptic-oblong, 3-7.5 x 2.3-5 cm, glabrous, white woolly-tomentose beneath when young, base obtuse-subcordate, apex acute or crenate, petiole 3-9 mm. In this case also, I couldn’t make out the pubescent/ tomentose nature from the photos. Checked a few other Z. species, but they don’t seem to match — in those other species, either the leaves are hairy, or the nerves don’t meet (in Z. caracatta). I am completely new to all these details, and not sure how to conclude if it is Z. rugosa. 🙂 I think it is Ziziphus incurva Roxb. as per images and details herein and as per comparative images at Ziziphus .
