I am aware that Agalia talbotii syn A. littoralis Talb. has been merged with Agalia elaeagnoidea in most publications and it's quite true that there's a huge amount of variation in the species. Some specimens of Aglaia elaeagnoidea seen in northern Karnataka are very large trees.
Whatever one wants to call it, the shrub or small tree posted above is quite distinct in its characters and seems to be specific to Tungareshwar and coastal parts of North Kanara and the Konkan as stated by Talbot in his Flora. It was mentioned by K. V. Billore in his thesis (unpublished), Studies in the vegetation and flora of Thana District, 1972. regards Radha On Wednesday, July 27, 2016 at 12:28:14 PM UTC+5:30, JM Garg wrote: > > Thanks, Radha ji. > The Flora of India Volume 4 was published in 1997 after that there are > many changes.
