Well, the characters of the female flowers, especially the styles and the fruits are among the important diagnostic characters in the genus *Glochidion.*
The present images are of very low resolution. We can see a leafy twig with infructescences having clusters of pedicellate capsular fruits in the axils of fallen leaves simulating a raceme (pseudoraceme). Next, the fruits were 4-locular, deeply lobed and some lobes again bilobulte. In this alliance we have species like *G. tirupathiense, G. acuminatum, G. sphaerogynum *and so on. They are distinguishable mainly by the charcters of the styes. *Glochidion acuminatum - *style columnar to clavate, 0.5-2 mm long, connate below into a column; apical lobes 4-5, 0.3-1 mm long, erect or spreading. *Glochidion tirupathiense - *style columnar, ca 2 mm long, connate below into a column; apical lobes ca 0.5 mm long, erect. *Glochidion sphaerogynum - *style subglobose or button-like or discoid, fused, 1-1.5 x 2-3 mm. In the present images we can observe a few fruits with persistent styles which are in a ring, hollow at the middle and very short in length. It is not possible to ascertain whether there was a short column subtending them. In view of these observation and an incomplete picture as to the exact structure and size of the styles, the tentative identification here is *Glochidion acuminatum *Müll.Arg. var. *acuminatum.* Thanks and regards.
