I do not think this is a topographical error. One has to check with editor or the author. Please donot imagine (Mr.Punkaj) Secondly, I have never identified this as Ardisia solanaceae (Dr. Gurusharanji's query). It may not be possible to say exactly which species. But it is quite possible to say that the species identified by someone may not be correct.

Some earlier relevant feedback:“Ardisia solanacea Pankaj” “This is again the same plant which is not yet correctly identified. there is a divided opinion of it being Ardisea solanacea where as many other feels it is not A. solanacea. I feel it is not A. solanacea. Regards Satish Pardeshi” “This is Ardisia solanacea tanay” As per descriptions available with me and having seen the plant, I feel it is Ardisia solanacea. regards,Rashida. I think Rashida Ji is right. It looks to be Ardisia Solanacea or Shoe button Ardisia.
