Note in the book at *Elaeagnus latifolia* L. <http://flora-peninsula-indica.ces.iisc.ac.in/herbsheet.php?id=3529&cat=7> further says: This taxon has often been segregated into two distinct species on the basis of perianth and anthocarp shape. The low altitude plants has been placed under *E. conferta *and higher altitude plants under *E. kologa*. As the species is a variable one, we have retained the broader Linean species concept.
An excursion flora of Central Tamilnadu by K M Mathew (1995), gives following differences between two species as: Leaves coppery below, Fascicle > 5-flowered, scales peltate, brown, Nut winged. Higher hills- *E. kologa* Leaves silvery below, Fascicle < 4-flowered, scales stellate, silvery white, Nut not winged. Lower hills- *E. indica* On Tue, 24 Sep 2019 at 15:59, J.M.
