Requesting to please provide ID confirmation of the attached Sterculia guttata captured in Hiranandani Heritage Gardens, Powai, Mumbai in January 2013.
ID provided by … in the following post consisting 2 different pics of 2 different trees, so there is some confusion….
Have I marked the right pic against the right name?
You seem to have sent photographs of 2 different trees here – Cassia fistula [Bahava, Amaltas] & Sterculia guttata [Kukar, Goldhar]. The same also hold true for your previous mail [ie. the photographs are of 2 different trees]. Please check.

Malvaceae Week: Sterculia Villosa ID (MW-AR17): eflora discussion link on the same efi thread
Kallar river bed, Kallar forest, Ponmudi, Kerala Dec 2008 Not familiar with this genus, but two things look unusual A few leaves seen in third photograph has entire leaves, whereas S. villosa has 5-lobed leaves. The fruits appear to be single, S. villosa generally has 5 follicles stellately arranged. Could this be Sterculia guttata ? I was also tempted to call it S. guttata based on FBI, and with 1-4 follicles, but held back as I don’t have much knowledge of this genus. I am familiar with the location. Sterculia guttata trees are usually found along the river bed there. So I assume the picture could be of Sterculia guttata. Just checked the mail. Leaves are seen in photographs 2 & 3. If they belong to the same tree, then it is obviously Sterculia guttata. yes look like S. guttata, pods turn orange-red in colour on maturity. I too think that this is Sterculia guttata. Got some more pictures of the same tree (Sterculiaceae guttata member) with leaves, trunk, fruits and a large water snake-probably a checkered keelback peeping out of the rock crevice under the tree root.
Tree large, trunk 3-5 meters, Bark white,
Leaves – ~Heart shaped, ~Ovate, ~acute, 12cms approx. Very few leaves here and there in the tree branches. No flowers, Fruits- Hundreds, Approx 15 in a cluster.
Habitat: River side, near rocky bed Family Sterculiaceae,
Kallar, Western ghats, Kerala Affirmative for both – Sterculia guttata [Kukar, Goldhar] & Xenochropis piscator [the Checkered Keelback].
Sterculia indeed. I haven’t seen S.guttata but I think you are right as it doesn’t look like S.foetida or S.villosa either
efloraindia:311011 BRS 101: Please check whether this is S. balaghans. I think … is right, it is Sterculia guttata Roxb. ex DC. Affirmative. This is Sterculia guttata. My photographs for comparison are available at this link Looks like Sterculia guttata for me  Sterculia guttata: confused to put it under Sterculiaceae family of Malvaceae ?   Dear members,: … looks like Sterculia guttata (family Malvaceae, also placed in Sterculiaceae). Yes, I agree with … Sterculia guttata. The fruits are still unripe – the follicles will turn bright red. Affirmative. This is Sterculia guttata locally called Kukar / Goldhar.
