Thanks Saroj ji. Yes, I have seen this web page of Flora of Sri Lanka. My observation is a close match with the features seen in the photos on this page. In my observation, I find:
- The vine I found is above 1,600 metres (observed at 2,100 m) - The woody climber (liana) has terete stems, heavily tuberculate - 3-5 foliolate thick leathery leaves - Leaflets, 4 to 6 pairs of primary veins, low number - Mature leaflets, sub-entire, with very distant, shallow notches - Flowering & fruiting of *T. nilagiricum* typically occurs between December and March in the Nilgiris Regards.
