Gargji,

Thank you.
The answer to your simple question is "No".
I have now checked the Terminalia page on efi.

Just make a simple correction.  Look at the subpage on *Terminalia alata.* Just
replace this name by *Terminalia elliptica *Willd. and the images uploaded
by TSP ji are fitting here.  I suggest to insert an additional image of the
excellent fruits uploaded in this present thread by Satish Nikam ji.
Finally remove and  place the name *T. alata *as a synonym of *T.
elliptica. *The name *T. arjuna *will become a conserved name in a few
months during the International Bot. Congress to be held in China.  The
rejected names against this will be *T. cuneata *Roth as well as *T.
elliptica *Willd.  It does not matter.  as  there is no constraint in using
the name *T. elliptica *if  treated as a distinct species and this  is in
fact the earliest name available  for *T. alata, T. crenulata, T. coriacea* and
*T. tomentosa*, as per my opinion, and in India, we recognize only these
two species under Sect. *Pentaptera.*

Regards.
*.*
