It is very interesting to note that KEW herbarium marked as type species of *C. corindum* L. is very similar to what I see here - *C. helicacabum* L., a very common herb (and we have only this one here, in Hooghly) -
- http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/getImage.do?imageBarcode=K000074511 - http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/getImage.do?imageBarcode=K000037467 Compared to above is a herbarium of *C. helicacabum* var. *microcarpum* Miq. - http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/getImage.do?imageBarcode=K000037458 Flowers of *C. helicacabum* are very small as per Hooker, Haines, Prain, compared with the photographs attached here. Wallich herbarium of *C. canescens* can be viewed at KEW - http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/getImage.do?imageBarcode=K000701890. I think this species is *C. canescens*, where leaves are (mostly) not acuminate tipped. Thank you Regards On Sun, Dec 7, 2014 at 2:59 PM, J.M.
