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.

Regards.
Dinesh
