Dear Surajit I have examined the details as can be seen in the photos. It appears to be near to E. nivulia but there are differences. Your plant does not show any indication of spines, not even remnants of fallen spine clusters. Further the cyathia are all solitary, whereas in E. nivulia, they are mostly in diads or triads. Therefore, I am unable to identify this species. Probably it is an introduced species. N. P. Balakrishnan 5 March 2015
