Thanks for sharing. The flowers are much liked by Black Beetles common in Bhitarkanika. It is polyphagus but prefers Acanthus ilicifolius flowers. I received specimen from the region many times and forwarded it to the Entomologists but failed to get correct identification. It reminds me of Chrysolina madrasae beetles feeding on Blumea lacera as I reported it on Blumea as first record during my undergraduate studies. Oudhia, P. and B.S. Thakur. 1996.

Re: [efloraindia:97411] [Efloraofindia_ Xylocarpus granatum, the Cannon Ball tree_ 031211PD02_ Flora of Odisha]
Thanks for sharing your work. Excellent documentation. Sishumar or Soons is Sanskrit name for Dolphins. We have naval vessel of Sishumar series. It will be interesting to explore that why X.granatum is associated with Sishumar i.e Dolphin. In Sunderbans Gangetic Dolphins and X.granatum share same habitat. Sishumar kand, Sishumar bela, Sishumar booti, Sishumar kanda, Sishumar telia and so on are names present in my medicinal plant database. Many are associated with Dolphin and many are not. Sishu means infant and Mar means to kill. Many herbs used as infant killers or many times for abortion are named as Sishumar. Not sure whether Dolphins and Xylocarpus are real Sishumar in this sense. These days Jatropha curcas is coming in category of Sishumar herbs as it has taken lives of atleast 10 kids and sent thousands to hospitals as cases of accidental Jatropha poisoning. regards Pankaj Oudhia On Sat, Dec 3, 2011 at 3:06 PM, prasad dash prasad.dash2...@gmail.comwrote: Pankaj Ji the link might be showing wrong local name.

[efloraindia:97421] Fabaceae-Caesalpinioideae (Caesalpiniaceae) WeeK: December 5-11, 2011: Introduction
Fabaceae Lindley Bean or Pea family (=Leguminosae A. L. de Jussieu) Subfamily Caesalpinioideae DC. B H, Takhtajan, Thorne, APG III and APweb as Caesalpinioideae Cronquist and Dahlgren as family Caesalpiniaceae. Approx.150 genera, 2,700 species Distributed mainly in tropics and subtropics, a few species in the temperate regions. Salient features: Trees, shrubs or herbs, leaves usually pinnate compound with pulvinate base, flowers zygomorphic corolla not papilionaceous, posterior petal innermost, sepals free, odd sepal anterior, stamens 10, usually free, in two whorls , ovary superior, carpel 1, fruit a pod. Major genera: Chamaecrisia (260 species), Bauhinia (250), Senna (250), Caesalpinia (120) and Cassia (30). Description: Trees (Delonix), shrubs or herbs, rarely woody climbers (Pterolobium, Bauhinia). Leaves alternate, pinnately or palmately compound, sometimes simple (Bauhinia), leaf base (sometimes also the base of leaflets) pulvinate, stipules present. Inflorescence racemose, in racemes or spikes (Dimorphandra). Flowers bracteate (bracts usually caducous) bisexual, zygomorphic, perigynous. Calyx with 5 sepals, rarely 4 (Amherstia), free or rarely connate (Bauhinia), odd sepal anterior. Corolla with 5 petals, rarely 3 (Amherstia), 1 (Pahuda) or even absent (Tamarindus), free, not papilionaceous, posterior petal innermost. Androecium with 10 stamens, sometimes lesser (3 in Tamarindus), rarely more, free, sometimes unequal in size (Cassia), anthers bithecous, dehiscence longitudinal or by apical pores. Gynoecium with a single carpel, unilocular with many ovules, placentation marginal, ovary superior, style single, curved. Fruit a legume or pod, rarely a lomentum; seeds 1-many, seed coat hard, endosperm minute or absent, food reserves in cotyledons. Economic importance: The Subfamily includes several ornamentals such as pride of Barbados (Caesalpinia pulcherrima), paulo verde (Parkinsonia), red bud (cercis canadensis), Gul-mohar (Delonix regia), and several species of Cassia and Senna. Many species of Senna are cultivated for leaves that yield drug senna. The heartwood of Haematoxylon campechianum (logwood) yields the dye hematoxylin.

[efloraindia:97434] Loranthus is increasing on Trees ?
Dear Friends, In my observation many Loranthus species are increasing drastically on trees in deciduous forests of S.Karnataka and on avenue trees in Bangalore, from the past 3 years ! Have any of you observed the same ? in other cities, towns, forests.in other parts of our country ? Out here observation is..in the wild trees most affected are Phyllanthus emblica etc.. and in Bangalore they seem to thrive well on Peltophorum pterocarpum, Bauhinia purpurea,Drypetes roxburghii, lots and lots of others and.even Grevillea robusta etc. As Giby ji pointed out it could be openness of canopies...one of the factors...and maybe.. Global warming ? Erratic rainfall ? Increase in bird population ? or so many others we dont understand. Fanua and Flora make up our fragile ecosystems and we need a deeper understanding i thinkto our limited capacity,, as far as the human brain can go. Something to think of.just like how Lantana camara, Eupatorium, Parthenium invaded and now its got naturalised. Such phenomena...i think we cannot do anything about it, much practically.to 'control' (unnaturally). but can we at least understand the underlying processes ? Pl provide inputs. Warm Regards.
