*Dictyospermum ovalifolium *has a synonym, Aneilema ovalifolium and is endemic to the Western Ghats.
Shivaprakashji, Few clarifications (please consider these clarifications for better understanding of the species). Whether the fruits are dehiscent or indehiscent and blue at maturity? whether the leaves (especially lower leaves) petioled or not? and the number of perfect stamens. Please check and share these information, if possible.
