Yes Giby, I too have the book by Dr Sathish Kumar, right now on my table. To me it looks different. There are 6 species of Trias in India namely, Trias bonaccordensis, T. crassifolia, T. disciflora, T. nasuta, T. oblonga and T. stocksii. I am nto sure if the plant pic matches properly with any of these. Pankaj
