I think, the upload by Siva ji from Sri Lanka herbal garden https://groups.google.com/g/indiantreepix/c/wh-XdbJ_2Qk/m/kRgaaKcyvQMJ is *Leea alata Edgew*, (even though Sri Lanka is not in the given distribution list) because -
- as far as I can see it is 1-pinnate leaf with sessile leaflets, elliptic-oblong to elliptic-lanceolate leaflets - *most importantly oblong stipule* for comparing - 1. KEW herbarium - http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/detailsQuery.do?barcode=K000736383 2. GBIF herb. (also sourced from KEW) - https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/912569415 Thank you.
