Garcinia<\/i> sp., perhaps.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Could\u00a0\u00a0this be Garcinia gummi-gutta<\/i>?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Can it be Garcinia sessilis<\/i>??!!
\nJust a guess…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

It is little difficult to confirm the species using just flowers. If you can provide at least a picture with leafy branch that would make life easier to try for the species. My guess is that there is a possibility of this being
\nG. indica<\/i> considering the fact that this has taken from N. Canara! But not a confirmed one!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

I think its Garcinia gummigutta<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The id’s seems to be ok for me. But for conformation, at least for the first picture, we need more information, mainly on flowers and color of the exudate from the bark.
\nThe Id of the second picture is seems to be correct! My guess is based on the size and shape of leaves. Further, the species name <\/span>G. cambogia<\/i> is now a synonym of <\/span>Garcinia gummi-gutta<\/i> (L.) Roxb. of <\/span>Clusiaceae<\/i> family.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

may still be.. but those frantic markedly hyped ads are all but gone..\u00a0 but i am sure just like the ponzi schemes it made the sellers of cambogia extracts, ad writers and ad distributors some real cash..<\/p>\n
