This observation has mix of plants; the conspicuously yellow-fruiting plant is Argyreia elliptica (Roth) Choisy; the fig plant too is bearing figs, though not profusely, and the size of figs is smaller.


This is Ficus talbotii King, and a climber with yellow fruits.

Species in attached photos is Ficus amplissima.


I had posted this observation in iNaturalist as Ficus amplissima Sm. – based on the fluidic green stem growing on the host tree.
But … corrected my ID to Ficus talbotii King, and that is when I noticed the leaves with that tell-tale “tail-like tip”.
I humbly request … to reconsider his suggestion. I will wait for his re-validation.
I am attaching two photos that show the caudate tips of the leaves.

I was wrong, apologies for that just saw stem photos, yes this is Ficus talbotti. Thanks for correction.
