Garg ji, JD Hooker (1887) considered Glochidion to be distinct from Phyllanthus on account of absence of floral glands and this treatment received wide acceptance but recent molecular studies (Karthiarchchi et al. 2005) suggested its merger with Phyllanthus. If you want to follow them by which Phyllanthus will become a mega-genus whereby already complicated taxonomy of the group will be out of bounds, then please follow the treatment of Mueller and take Glochidion daltonii as a Phyllanthus. It is up to you to decide. The species, unlike Phyllanthus, does not have floral glands. Regards.
