P1240377.jpg & P1240381.jpg show spheroid fruit with glochids on its surface ... would therefore think of *Cynoglossum zeylanicum* (the correct name could be *Cynoglossum furcatum*) ... *Paracaryopsis coelestina* (current name: *Adelocaryum coelestinum*) would have cup-like fruit with glochids on its periphery.
The intent of query is to know if there are any other species of * Cynoglossum* reported from this part of Sahyadri. Please correct my thoughts, if wrong. Regards.
