Thank you so much Swagat ji for the explanation. The scientific paper is very 
informative, interesting  and full of keys and comparative data.  I gather that 
according to Dr. Almeida this would now be called Hymenodictyon orixense 
(Roxb.) Mabberly. Also Flora of Mah. Vol 3 pg: 20 mentions it as Hymenodictyon 
orixense. Thanks again.

 

regards,

Rashida.

Rashidaji,
 
Wallich (Roxburgh, 1824) originally described the genus Hymenodictyon based on 
the Indian Cinchona excelsa Roxb. (Roxburgh, 1799). The generic name is derived 
from the Greek word ‘hymena’, meaning a membrane, and ‘dictyon’, meaning a net, 
referring to the membranaceous wings around the seeds.

Hi Swagat ji,
 
Thankyou for posting the local name so promptly, which you have been posting 
for all plants.  Its such a great help to know the local name immediately.  
Would you by any chance know whether the botanical name Hymenodictyon is Latin 
or Greek?  Any other information for the same. Thank you.
 
regards,
Rashida.

Dear all,
 
'Hymenodictyon excelsum'  is called 'Bhorsal' 'भोरसाळ' in Marathi.

Hymenodictyon excelsum- Kuthan, fruiting  was seen at the Silonda trail, 
national park, Mumbai, yesterday. The older fruits probably become blackish 
with white marks/lenticels?.

Rashida.
