Jan 25, 2009 … at Zirad near Alibag, Maharashtra Complete Set depicting all features!!!!!!!!!!! Differences between different subspecies of Acacia nilotica (Lucidcentral)
As per these, subspecies tomentosa is not there in India. Is it true ? Thanks very much … for bringing this post up for validation.
I too am keen to know whether I am mistaking the subspecies that I have labeled for an unarmed tree seen at Vaghbil, Thane.
The last photograph taken on Jan 25, 2009, at Zirad near Alibag, Maharashtra does not show aspects other than a cluster of dried-up pods – it might be at best taken just as Acacia nilotica. . Botanical name- देवबबुल in Marathi : 3 posts by 2 authors.
sir can I get botanical name ? – देवबबुल in Marathi
देवबाभळ देवबबुल is not Marathi … I wonder whether all names listed are Marathi at all. . Vachellia nilotica subsp. tomentosa (Benth.) Kyal. & Boatwr. … FOR VALIDATION
Waghbil, Thane :: Dec 25, 2007 · 2:35 PM IST :: about 3 m (10 ft) asl
This entire small tree – unarmed . Vachellia nilotica subsp. tomentosa (Benth.) Kyal. & Boatwr. … FOR VALIDATION
Waghbil, Thane :: Dec 25, 2007 · 2:35 PM IST :: about 3 m (10 ft) asl
This entire small tree – unarmed.
Pl. check keys at Could you decide, …? No, …, I could not decide. It is never easy for me to analyse per given descriptions and keys of some genera.
I have suggested ID merely on the basis of the plant being unarmed, and that the trunk, bark looks different from Vachellia nilotica subsp. nilotica OR subsp. indica.
