This is very interesting. I suppose the presence of several appendages below the stigmatic lobes in your first photograph (IMG_3277) would qualify this for *Thottea **dalzellii**.* From what I've understood, such appendages are either absent or only occasional in *Thottea siliquosa*. These two species are closely related and I don't have an extensive grasp of all the finer differences between them yet.
Are all the flowers in your first batch of photographs from the very same plant? I'm curious about the arrangement of stamens: *4+4+3 *in the first three images as against the more common *3+3+3 *in the last image of the partially-open flower (IMG_4853)*.* Let's wait for Dr. Santhosh's views.
