I am not acquainted with this genus, Sir ji. Yet, I do not think it can be *Remusatia hookeriana* -(1) as per Fl.Br.Ind., spathe max 2.5 inch, / 7 cm max.- FoC) (2) spadix max. 11+7+9 = 27 mm = 1 inch approx (check FoC). The spadix in this thread looks much longer, though actual size can only be verified by Sawmliana ji.
