26042010GS1 tree from Nainital for ID: 3 images.

Having little knowledge about tropical and subtropical trees (except some growing in Delhi), I tend to mix them. This was the tree growing along Nainital lake and known as Bangar (as a local told me). The other tree identified by … as Lannea coromedelica grows common along hillsides.

---

I think this is not Boswellia serrata. It somewhat resembles Lannea coromandelica.

---

I thought they look different, especially the hanging inflorescence along with leaves. Let us see other views. I am novice regarding trees.

---

The plant is not Lannea coromandelica. L.c. is a very common avenue tree in Chennai. I have beautiful photographs of this plant. I will post them after searching from my old files.

---

I am also of the opinion that it is something else.

---

This tree is Fraxinus micrantha common in Nainital. The local name is Angu. In English, it is called Ash.
