May be\u00a0Chionanthus mala-elengi<\/i><\/p>\n

\n
\n

…, this was growing in a dry area not part of the Western Ghats. C. mala-elengi <\/i>is supposed to be endemic to the Western Ghats. Please validate once more.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Flowers of the same.<\/div>\n

Thank you sir. I will take it as C. mala-elengi<\/i> in that case.<\/p>\n

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

The fruits in this case are distinctly with a stalk which should rule out <\/span>C. mala-elengi<\/span><\/a>. <\/i>Can they belong instead to <\/span><\/span>C. ramiflorus<\/span><\/i><\/a>? Please refer the flowers and other details <\/span>posted here<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you very much sir. Yes, I agree they match too.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Chionanthus mala-elengi<\/i><\/span><\/a> as per images and details herein.<\/p>\n

Could this belong to Oleaceae<\/i>?
\nDate: April 2015
\nPlace: Hassan, Karnataka<\/span>
\nHabit: Short tree
\nHabitat: Scrub forest<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n

Oleaceae<\/i>?<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\n

Yes, that is what I thought of too. But no idea about the genus!<\/p>\n

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

Oleaceae<\/i>. Check Chionanthus<\/i> sp.<\/p>\n

\n

But in Chionanthus<\/i> the inflorescences are paniculate.<\/p>\n

\n

I think close to images at Chionanthus ramiflorus<\/i> Roxb.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n
