Hi Mr.Garg, This looks like Cordia myxa to me too. According to Pradip Krishen's new book 'Jungle Trees of Central India' [which is fairly well researched and presented] : - C.myxa is the accepted name and C.dichotoma is a synonym. - it closely resembles C.obliqua in the field, though C. obliqua is a smaller tree with larger,broader usually non-toothed leaves and larger fruit. My photographs of C.myxa are available at these links : Google Groups Google Groups Google Groups My photographs of C.obliqua [though wrongly labelled] are available at this link : Google Groups With regards, Neil Soares.

Forwarding again for Id confirmation or otherwise please. Some earlier relevant feedback: looks like Cordia myxa - from Ajinkya ji. efi page on Cordia dichotoma As per Singh ji: "Cordia myxa L., and Cordia dichotoma Forst as such are distinct species The problem arose that the nameC. myxa was also used for plants from India, which is same as C. obliqua Willd., a name adopted in Flora of British India. This plant is now correctly known C. dichotoma Forst. The plant should be cited as: Cordia dichotoma Forst. syn: Cordia obliqua Willd.; C. myxa auct. (non L.); C. indica Lam.; C. latifolia Roxb. Cordia myxa L. is a distinct plant now understood to be confined to Asia minor and Egypt " ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Dilip Pandit <[email protected]> Date: 23 April 2014 14:57 Subject: [efloraofindia:186794] ID please of this tree To: [email protected] This tree was photographed in South Dinajpur of West Bengal. Local villagers claim fancifully that there are only a handful of these trees in India. Is curious to know which is this tree.
