Dear all, at the outset, I apologise for placing a very unreasonable query.
Some years ago when I first visited Neora Valley in North Bengal, the guide plucked a fruit and called it 'bantay' in the local language. He said it was the most favourite fruit of the bears in that forest. I am hoping that someone familiar with the flora of Neora Valley and the symbiosis between plants and animals in this nature reserve, would be able to throw some light on this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Sushmita Jha -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "efloraofindia" group.
