Well, *Bridelia montana *is characterized by being entirely glabrous, and the ovary and fruits are bilocular. However, in *B. verrucosa*, the young parts are reddish-velutinous to tomentose while the ovary and fruits are 1-locular. The attached image is not sufficient to identify the species with certainty with the above mentioned characters but to the best of my knowledge, only *Bridelia verrucosa *is reported to occur in the dry deciduous forests and shrubberies around the Durgapur area of West Bengal. Thanks and regards, Tapas.
