Raman ji Here is my note from an earlier thread
"Cordia myxa L., and Cordia dichotoma Forst as such are distinct species The problem arose that the name C. myxa was also used for plants from India, which is same as C. obliqua Willd., a name adopted in Flora of British India. This plant is now correctly known C. dichotoma Forst. The plant should be cited as: Cordia dichotoma Forst. syn: Cordia obliqua Willd.; C. myxa auct. (non L.); C. indica Lam.; C. latifolia Roxb. Cordia myxa L. is a distinct plant now understood to be confined to Asia minor and Egypt" -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
