Thanks Surajit ji for dissection of the various descriptions ! Just for information, a descriptive name given in Tamil lexicon <http://dsalsrv02.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/philologic/getobject.pl?c.1:1:6189.tamillex> [Madras], University of Madras for *J. rottlerianum* ... synonym of *J. coarctatum* var *coarctatum*. is *white-bracted jasmine* ! Not sure whether the bracts of *J. coarctatum *are indeed white-coloured; it could also imply the bracts are brighter OR lighter tone than that of other *Jasminum* species.
