Thank you Neil Sir, I have noted the pic no. 7 (6080,jpg), but had some confusion, for FoP does not have *D. alata* <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=110295> and *D. bulbifera* is clockwise in FoP<http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=200028093>, but ""twining to left" in FoC<http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=200028093> .
