 Can you help in identification of two fruits which are collected from Coimbatore district.

Possibly Diospyros. Are they fleshy or woody?

Appears close to images of fruits at Diospyros discolor Willd.

This is Lansium domesticum

I send you three varieties: Lansium parasiticum.var. duku, L.parasiticum var. domesticum, L.parasiticum var. aquaeum.

Beautiful  photographs. For me the ID is correct. Is it not the langsat fruit. The tree has been grown here in Mysore  in one of the private gardens here.  I have seen the tree & eaten the fruits. 

There seems to be some confusion as to call it Lansium domesticum or Lansium parasiticum as per the following:
Lansium parasiticum :
Lansium domesticum :

What should be the correct one to follow ?

We usually call them Lansium domesticum, however theplantlist.org says L. parasiticum is the accepted name, then many people say L. parasiticum.

In south India we have Lansium domesticum

The tree is grown in one of the private gardens here (Mysore).
