Date/Time- 31/08/2010- 11 AM
Location- Place, Altitude, GPS- Assam,
Habitat- Garden/ Urban/ Wild/ Type- Wild Type
Plant Habit- Tree/ Shrub/ Climber/ Herb- Small Tree
Height/Length- Leaf 12-17-7-10 cm ,serrated
Flower- Fig on the main stem near base (2.5-4cm across) Is it some sort of wild variety of F. carica ………………?????? Please use the following link for a good key for the genus Ficus in Flora of China, that can be used for Assam as well. We usually need specimen in hand for most of the characters for running the key for Ficus. I guess one must check with all the species posted by member before putting for resurfing.. In Ficus nervosa the leaves are not serrated (they are entire) and in F. nervosa the figs are developed in pairs in the leaf axis. Further the peduncle may not be this long in F. nervosa. Sometimes the figs produced as sessile as well. surely now will check with possibility of the species, i thought its closer to F. nervosa.. Very close to Ficus obscura Blume, because leaves are dentate-serrate and receptacles are pedunculate and in clusters, but in this species leaf base is often inequilateral which is not clear from image, otherwise there may be possibilities for Ficus erecta Thunb. For correct identification of Ficus species it requires a specimen, small branch and figs in addition to photos. One has to examine the external and internal characters of the figs. So please send the specimens for correct identification. Photos alone will not serve the purpose. Ficus fistulosa Reinwardt ex Blume ??
Leaf margins serrate, entire in Ficus fistulosa. Very close to Ficus obscura Blume, because leaves are dentate-serrate and receptacles are pedunculate and in clusters, but in this species leaf base is often inequilateral which is not clear from image, otherwise there may be possibilities for Ficus erecta Thunb.
To me looks different from Ficus obscura as per
To me also looks different from Ficus erecta as per
To me appears close as per images and details at Ficus fistulosa and as per
https://florafaunaweb.nparks.gov.sg/id=4181 (I can see leaf margins as slightly serrate & not entire)
https://lkcnhm.nus.edu.sg/dna/organisms/details/342 http://portal.cybertaxonomy.org/flora-malesiana/node/12070 (The species is very variable in size and shape of the lamina…. In the Philippines, the leaf margin can be lobate)
http://tropical.theferns.info/image.php?id=Ficus+fistulosa (I can see leaf margins as slightly serrate & not entire)
This is Ficus fistulosa Reinw. ex Blume,,
