Thank you Neil for the possible ID. The charactersitics of leaves and flowers match well. However I would like to point out the discrepancy in the citation of first person to discover the Species. In T.Cooke on Pg. 539 it is mentioned as Litsea chinensis, Lam.
In Flora of Mah. It is mentioned as Litsea tersa (Linn.) Almeida. regards, Rashida.
