As per FBI *Evergreen tree. Branches robust. Leaves whorled, 12-30 cm long, shining above, tomentose beneath; nerves 6-10 pairs, petiole 8-20 mm; clusters silky villous, 6 mm diam; fruit globose, 8 mm diam. on 4 mm diam perianth cup, pedicel as long. Assam, Silhet, Chittagong.* ** It appears both species are quite distinct, otherwise they may not have been put under the different genera. I am not familiar with these genera but apparently with the two species having gone under same genus Actinodaphne and only single epithet being available, a new combination was proposed in Flora of Maharastra. The Plant List does not appear to be aware of this combination and left the name as unresolved, also suggesting that two may be same. Interestingly former has alternate leaves and latter whorled leaves among other things. Perhaps Satish ji can verify from brief descriptions above. Perhaps more information can be built up on the basis of above information by me.
