Thanks a lot, Sanjappa ji. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: M Sanjappa Date: 13 May 2017 at 12:44 Subject: Re: Fwd: [efloraofindia:239522] plant from mettupalayam To: "J.M. Garg" <[email protected]>
Dear Mr Garg Thanks for forwarding pictures of Legumes to me. I refrain from identifying species based on pictures with no accompanying description, sharp and close up pictures of flowers and fruits and field data. The attached pictures apparently belong to Pterocarpus based of pod character but I am not sure of the species unless I see the materials. with best wishes M.Sanjappa, Ph.D., FNA, FASc, FNASc INSA Senior Scientist Mahatma Gandhi Botanical Garden University of Agricultural Sciences GKVK, Bengaluru 560 065 Phone: 080 2333 0153 Ext.302 On Saturday, 13 May 2017 12:20 PM, J.M.

Some earlier relevant feedback: It looks to me as an exotic *Pterocarpus *sp. - from Kunhikannan ji Pterocarpus <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/f/fabaceae/pterocarpus> species so far in efi Does not look like any ‎Pterocarpus <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/f/fabaceae/pterocarpus> species in efi. - from me Possibly Ecastophyllum Krishnaraj yes, I do agree with Krishnarajji; It is *Dalbergia ecastophyllum *(L.)Taub., It is native of Brazil thank you regards A.Lalithamba Pl check the link for *Dalbergia ecastaphyllum* http://www.discoverlife.org/mp /20q?search=Dalbergia <http://www.discoverlife.org/mp/20q?search=Dalbergia> Thank you Swamy Ji but Based on the characters I have identified the plant as Dalbergia ecastophyllum; A shrub, up to 20 ft. or more high, with dark purple branchlets and small crowded panicles of fragrant white flowers; in swamps by the sea.The simple leaves have petioles 5 to 12 mm long and elliptical or ovate blades 2.5 to 14 cm long and 2 to 8 cm broad. They are leathery, glossy green, rounded at the base, pointed at the tip, and pubescent on the under side; fruits elongated, lenticular about 1.5 to 3 cm long that contains one flattened, brown seed. there are several variations in the pictures on Net; sometimes there may be ecological variations also. regards A.Lalithamba To me it looks different from images of *Dalbergia ecastaphyllum* at https://species.wikimedia.org/ wiki/Dalbergia_ecastaphyllum#/ media/File:Dalbergia_ ecastaphyllum_feuilles.JPG <https://species.wikimedia.org/wiki/Dalbergia_ecastaphyllum#/media/File:Dalbergia_ecastaphyllum_feuilles.JPG> http://eol.org/pages/639535/ overview <http://eol.org/pages/639535/overview> http://florida.plantatlas.usf. edu/Photo.aspx?id=11188 <http://florida.plantatlas.usf.edu/Photo.aspx?id=11188> https://plants.usda.gov/core/ profile?symbol=DAEC <https://plants.usda.gov/core/profile?symbol=DAEC> https://www.si.edu/object/ nmnhbotany_11273579 <https://www.si.edu/object/nmnhbotany_11273579> -- With regards, J.M.Garg 'Creating awareness of Indian Flora & Fauna' <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Jmgarg1> Winner of Wipro-NFS Sparrow Awards 2014 for efloraofindia <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/award-for-efloraofindia>.
