The flowers are there but being under 1.5 mm long I could not capture any details. The fruit is 8mm or less, and leaf, peduncles, sepals are all densely pubescent: ... are these the definitive chars for C.hirsutus ? Attached is a new image of the seed which is 5 mm long Hope Neil-ji would confirm these chars and size indicators for his specimen. regards, A.Sinha On Friday, December 14, 2012 2:37:10 AM UTC+5:30, Vijayasankar wrote: > Hi Dr. Neil, > I think those hairy globose structures are infected (gall) fruits.
