\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Thank you … Does it produce fruits?<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Male plant will not produce fruit.<\/p>\n

\n

Can it be male plant of Piper mullesua<\/em><\/span> Buch.-Ham. ex D. Don<\/span><\/a>\u00a0as per posting by … at Piperaceae, Lauraceae and Thymelaeaceae Fortnight: Piperaceae-Piper for id from Sikkim-NS SEP 11<\/u><\/span> ?<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Looks different\u00a0according to leaf comparison.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n

No. It is a female plant of Piper thomsonii<\/em>. Inflorescence of Piper mullesua<\/em> have bisexual Flowers.<\/span><\/p>\n

I could not find listing of\u00a0Piper thomsonii (C.DC.) Hook.f. in Nepal,\u00a0however, distribution is mentioned in POWO only.\u00a0But no record\u00a0of herbarium sp. in Nepal.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
Sir it is a female plant and probably of P. hamiltonii<\/em><\/div>\n
\n
\n
Thanks a lot, \u2026 \u2026 suggested it as a\u00a0\u00a0female plant of Piper thomsonii<\/em>. Any views ?<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n

Thank you \u2026 Only POWO showing distribution in Nepal.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

CoL also listed for Nepal !<\/p>\n

\n
Looking the length and the thickness of the of the spike and the nature of the prophyll, it may not be a P. thomsonii<\/em><\/div>\n
Lets have some more picture with the habit, leaves and fruits.
\nIt may not be <\/span>P. hamiltonii<\/em> also and could be <\/span>P. khasianum<\/em> too. So better get more materials.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
