Dear Sir Hard to get details as both are closely related but as per flora of India: *F. amplocarpa*= leaves broadly ovate to ovate to elliptic, with glabrous to minutely puberulous (which is not clear from photographs), figs globose to sub-globose or obovoid and this is the catch in photos figs are clearly ellipsoid and second leaves are much broad or rounded or cordiform and basal lateral veins elongate to 3/4 the length of the lamina (*F. amplocarpa *to 1/2 the length) clearly show this should be *F. guttata.* Even I doubt photos on POWO for *F. amplocarpa* are actually of *F. guttata.* Kind regards, Varun From: [email protected] Sent: Mon, 09 Mar 2026 13:03:36 To: efloraofindia <[email protected]> Cc: DineshValke <[email protected]> Subject: Fwd: [efloraofindia:486645] Ficus amplocarpa Govind. & Masil. :: The Nilgiris :: Jan 29, 2026 · 1:29 PM IST I think it should be Ficus guttata as per the publication: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/308471209_Identity_of_Ficus_amplocarpa_and_F_guttata_Moraceae_the_two_closely_allied_South_Indian_endemic_species_and_their_conservation_status ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Dinesh Valke <[email protected]> Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2026 at 11:15 Subject: [efloraofindia:486645] Ficus amplocarpa Govind. & Masil. :: The Nilgiris :: Jan 29, 2026 · 1:29 PM IST To: efloraofindia <[email protected]> *Ficus amplocarpa* Govind. & Masil.
