Garg ji, The identification issue is over. This is Euonymus porphyreus Loes. as pointed out by Saroj ji and this forms a new record for India as pointed out by me. After seeing the original material of this species in the Edinburgh Herbarium, I confirmed the conclusion of Saroj ji.
Next issue is formal reporting of the species from India and this can be done by Saroj ji. If he has collected specimen then he can write a good note (paper) on it and publish in Journal of Japanese Botany or Edinburgh Journal of Botany or to any other suitable Journal. If he has not collected any specimen, then he has to go back to the exact locality and collect specimens. Looking forward for a good publication on this by Saroj ji. Regards.
