Well, sir, from my side, it was more of a process of elimination of species rather than narrowing down to this particular one. Please see these: 1 <http://florakarnataka.ces.iisc.ernet.in/hjcb2/img/pdf/Ixora%20nigricans/578.pdf.jpg> and 2 <http://florakarnataka.ces.iisc.ernet.in/hjcb2/img/pdf/Ixora%20nigricans/579.pdf.jpg>. I knew it could not be* Ixora polyantha *or the other associated species-* Ixora leucantha *because they are much larger flowers as I have observed.
And of the remaining species, I ruled out* Ixora arborea* because I have seen it before. Lastly, calyx glabrous narrowed it down to *Ixora nigricans*. I matched it with Dinesh sir's earlier photos from Belgaum and later it was confirmed by him and Vinaya Raj sir.
