Hi Dr. Vijayasankar, The tree in question here does have figs that have a pedicel but they are too large being more than 3 inches in diameter. However, the tree in the link has figs that are sessile and therefore possibly cannot be Ficus callosa. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. With regards, Neil Soares. --- On Tue, 4/2/13, Vijayasankar <[email protected]> wrote: From: Vijayasankar <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [efloraofindia:150394] Please identify this species of Ficus - NS 01042013 To: "Neil Soares" <[email protected]> Cc: "indiatreepix" <[email protected]> Date: Tuesday, April 2, 2013, 10:25 AM Hi Dr. Neil, Figs in Ficus callosa are supposed to have stalk/peduncle (1-1.2 cm long as per FoC). I do not see such peduncle (sessile?) in the pictures at the link provided by you. Please check, and correct me if I am wrong.
