Shrikant ji I see some confusion somewhere. Lepisanthes is a genus of Family Sapindaceae, trees and shrubs.
I see no match for Lepisanthes umbellata in IPNI, GRIN or even Kew Plant list The only reference I found in the link indicated below, a member of Piperaceae, I think again in error http://shendurney.com/checklists/thenmalamedicinal_plants.pdf <http://shendurney.com/checklists/thenmalamedicinal_plants.pdf>Perhaps you can throw some light. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
