Prasad is right. There are many similar looking Cycas. By the way, to me leaves look too long in this. I have a Cycas circinalis as home which has thicker trunk than this, but the length of the rachis is much shorter. I imagine if we have Dr. Rita from Indraprastha University here in the group.

Dear Pudji It is true that Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat was published by Ramat in 1978. Kitamura in 1978 did not transfer this to genus Dendrathema because, because if he did he had to retain thespecific epithet morifolium. It was in fact Tzelev 1961 (in V. L. Komarov, Fl. URSS 26:373) who formed the combination Dendrathema x morifolium (Ramat) Tzelev, 1961. In the same publication Ramat also described Anthemis grandiflora for which Kitamura in 1978 formed the combination Dendranthema x grandiflora (Ramat.) Kitam., 1978. Now there seems to a little confusion. According to GRIN, a fairly respected database Correct name is *Chrysanthemum x morifolium* Ramat. and following its synonyms: *Anthemis grandiflora* Ramat., *Anthemis stipulacea* Moench, *Chrysanthemum sinense* Sabine, *Chrysanthemum stipulaceum* (Moench) W. Wight, *Dendranthema ×grandiflorum* (Ramat.) Kitam. *Dendranthema ×morifolium* (Ramat.) Tzvelev, *Matricaria morifolia* Ramat. However according to new Plant List published by Kew and Missouri Botanical Garden (which is supposed to be fairly authentic), all following are accepted names: *Chrysanthemum morifolium *Ramat (syn: Anthemis grandiflora Ramat.; * Matricaria* *morifolia* (Ramat.)

Re: [efloraofindia:61386] Re: Plant for ID SMP1 25/1/2011
Satish ji, I had posted Bridelia scandens from Anashi WLS last May. You may please refer the database.Infact Aparna ji will remember the same we had seen at the Anshi ! However I just referred to Dr. Almeida's flora which gives the current name as Bridelia stipularis (L.) Blume synonyms being B. scandens(Roxb.), Cluytia scandens Roxb., B. Montana sensu Woodrow and Clusia stipularis L. The common is mentioned as* Patharpoda* The common name of C*hiknee* is given for Bridelia hamiltoniana in the flora. B. hamiltoniana is also a stragggling nearly glabrous shrub. regards, Rashida.
