IUCN Red List Status: Endangered (EN)
121011-MS – 53 – Pterocarpus santalinus: Affirmative, …. It is Pterocarpus santalinus, the Red Sanders.
‘Sandana vengai’ சந்தன வேங்கை in Tamil. It is endemic to Andhra Pradesh (Chittoor dt.) and extensively planted by Forest dept. in the forests of TN. Agree with … The Red Sanders tree occurs naturally only in a small area of Andhra Pradesh & adjoining parts of Tamil Nadu. I think the major portion of its wild population occurs in AP. Even though Gamble mentions its presence in the Hills of Cuddapah, S. Kurnool, N. Arcot and Chingleput, we have not come across its wild populations during our surveys in the latter two districts (of TN). The wild occurrence might be very sporadic or disappearing. What we observed in these districts were plantations, mixed or monoculture, by the FD. Wherever it is planted, it runs wild…we have seen hundreds and thousands of seedling and saplings in the plantation areas and its surroundings, espl. in Chengalpattu dt. Seed germination of red sanders seem to be very successful. But I think it is one of the slow-growing trees. I will be happy to know more about its wild occurrence in TN. Are there any recent reports or sightings?… pl share here.
