Location -Manas NP, Aasam
Date – March, 2014 Any other pictures, … No, Sorry. Phaleria macrocarpa is it wild or farmed it was wild and not farmed if i remember correctly as i had seen it two years back thanks … since it has several important medicinal properties
i thought may be it was being cultivated and did the fruits look as if they might be this big? with a line or furrow in the middle? size was almost like very small tomatoes i suppose and i don’t remember about the furrows distinctly but a faint line. I googled about the medicinal properties and really there are many. I don’t know whether local people are aware about it or not. This is a Meliaceae member. Either Dysoxylum or Aphanamixis. Any local name? Appears close to images at Aphanamixis polystachya (Wall.) R.Parker Yes … It can be Aphanamixis polystachya (रक्तरोहिडा in Marathi). I have seen this tree in Sagar Upvan, Mumbai.
