Dear Madhuri ji, ... may not be as good at identifying *Phyllanthus* species
as much as managed to impress !!
Your photos show *P. tenellus*, has naturalized in our country ... a
beautiful weed.

Not good at describing differences between *P. fraternus* and *P. tenellus*
... let me try : if the flowers / fruits are seen with a long stalk (well,
this long stalk is just about 3 - 4 mm), it is got to be *P. tenellus*; they
are also found to be above the leaf.
*P. fraternus*, (and so is* P. amarus*) the flowers are practically sessile
to plain vision, and you need to see the flowers and fruits under the leaves
... friends may correct me if my experience is wrong.

Both Tabish ji and Gurcharan ji have dissected the complexity of *P. niruri*at

Regards.
