Dear Gurcharan ji & Dinesh Ji , There can be several differences between these plant which are very minute and sometimes regarded as irrelevant by many taxonomists in some case but one difference I know which is more than enough to differentiate this two plats at a simple glance. Which is *Ixora casei* doesn't have stipules (extipulate) whereas *Ixora fulgens* has stipules grasping the stem. I will still request to check out the fact again. Regards Tanay
