Rubiaceae week: Catunaregam spinosa from Arsikere, Karnataka:<\/a>
\nSharing a few photos of this plant in full fruit in Arsikere Reserve Forest, KA.<\/span> The ripe fruit had a pungent fruity smell<\/span> in fact.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
Nice set of photos …,
\nHumans use – C.spinosa<\/i> fruits are crushed and used as soap to wash clothes, they turn frothy when mixed with water and agitated. <\/span>About faunal interdependance we need to study carefully
\nWe are heading to the same forest again on 19 th Feb. You must join us and carry on the good work of documenting floral species.<\/div>\n
\n

Andhra Pradesh, 27 Mar 2010,<\/div>\n
On fishing practices using kaare fruit, near sakaleshpur and kukke, Karnataka<\/u>
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
In the Western Ghats, during summer, the river water starts to recede and in some of the shallow pools beneath rocks and crevices many kinds of fishes still struggle to survive – waiting for the next monsoon.
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
People have learnt to to catch these fishes. Kaare fruits are properly beaten up with the help of stones and the mix is left to soak in the pool waters till it comes to a rich foam. After about five minutes, the fishes turn up on the surface belly-up. People then catch and take them home for a feast.
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
In Mamandur, two of the senior forest officials, when asked, explained “Before the wild life protection act -1979 came into practice, when they tried the above in a shallow pool, a large sized python came belly-up onto the surface and managed to escape into the forest !
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
Wonder what reaction this fruit causes on fishes – probably induces a severe itching or perhaps the poison reduces oxygen, makes it difficult for them to breathe.
\n<\/span>These days fish, frog habitats are under severe threat from human activities – over fishing, dams, pesticides etc<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n

It is now called <\/span>Catunaregam spinosa<\/i> [<\/span>Randia dumetorum<\/i> \/ <\/span>Randia spinosa<\/i>]. The local name is <\/span>Ghela<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n

Thanks for sharing your experiences. It is used as fish poison in many parts of the world.<\/span> Thats why its one of the common names is Fish Poison plant\/bush<\/b>.<\/span> Here is Google link<\/a> showing its worldwide use.<\/p>\n

\n
I found the link on Fish Poison plant has wealth of information and very interesting. One of your article on <\/span>Mainphal (Randia<\/i> dumetorum<\/i>, family Rubiaceae<\/i>)<\/span> has good info on the medicinal practices and on traditional healers. <\/span>These kind of surveys, gathering information and mainly documenting – is a commendable job. I hope it gives a immense satisfaction at least to ourselves.<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/b>
\n<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
I liked the way Ayurveda describes some of the common use of the plant ..
\n<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/b>“According to Ayurveda, Mainphal<\/b> is bitter, sweet, heating, aphrodisiac, emetic, antipyretic, carminative, alexiteric and cures abscesses, ulcers, inflammations, tumours, skin-diseases, piles etc.”<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
\n
\n

Yes, it is called <\/span>‘Gella’ ‘\u0917\u0947\u0933\u093e’ <\/b>or<\/span> ‘Gellphall’ ‘\u0917\u0947\u0933\u092b\u0933’ <\/b>in Marathi.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Thanks for your feeback…
\nI did not find any spines on the branches, is it possible that a particular tree of <\/span>Catunaregam spinosa<\/i> does not have any spines?<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n

It is quite a variable species, from small shrub to medium sized tree. Sometimes it doesn’t have spines either.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
… Completely agree with … There is a chance that this plant, being in comfortness, decided not to produce any defense tools.<\/div>\n
Further, …, you have spotted both white and yellow flowers (as in DSC07175), I believe.<\/div>\n
Color of the flower is white, which turns to yellow after a period of pollination.<\/span><\/div>\n
Just to convey the pollinators- I am done with, already.<\/div>\n

\n

So beautifully captured.<\/p>\n

\n

Very good capture indeed. The white flowers, the pollinated yellow flowers and fruits.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

I agree with … comments. I had never seen fruits’ pictures<\/p>\n

\n

Thanks for the info reg colour change after pollination….I thought that the yellowing is a sign of withering.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
it also occurs in Gardenia<\/i>. i’ll remember some more….\u00a0 later i guess<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
when i am not concentrating on them!!!!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 will list them here if i remember<\/div>\n

\n
This tree was seen by the roadside<\/span> near Tamhini ghat near Pune, MH<\/span> in Aug 2019.<\/div>\n
I guess this is Catunaregam spinosa<\/i>.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n

fruits are reminiscent of the wild pomegranate but I cant see any spines. do you …?<\/p>\n

\n
I too do not see much of spines in the pics except for the 3rd pic, which has a branch with spines on the bottom right.
\nAlso, the local boy did indeed tell us that the plant was <\/span>‘Gela’<\/b>, the local marathi name for this species.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n

thanks, \u2026 I personally have not seen this in real life. only on the net. so if you saw them on your visit or your co-travellers, it would be it.<\/p>\n
