Could be some other Ficus species; comments are sure to come. Not F. exasperata; the fruits and leaves in the posted photos say so. My impression: the fuits are lime green (almost yellow) with a bright yellow tip ripening to maroon, not seen in clusters as seen here, leaves during fruiting are scant ... many a times, none. Here is what I believe to be F. exasperata: http://www.flickr.com/search/?s=int&w=91314...@n00&q=Ficusexasperata&m=tags Regards.
