Gurcharan Ji in the list of Kashmiri names posted on this site has identified *Brimij *as *Celtis caucasica.* So I would take this plant to be *C.caucasica.* I could not locate a photo of the flower of* C.caucasica *on the net by google search. I hope the photo of flowers posted by me will be useful in this regard. Regards Taffazull
