Rani ji, I could not find much about this species on internet (and I have limited reference books).
I wish to know following: ... synonyms: *Vitis auriculata* ? *Cissus auriculata *? *Cayratia auriculata* ? ... any common name(s): ? ... regions native to, OR distribution: ? ... any good reference (URL or some book): ? and any point which differentiates it from *C. elongata.* ... there is one Google Book reference Prodromus Floræ Peninsulæ Indiæ Orientalis<http://books.google.com/books?id=yRsYAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA129&lpg=PA129&dq=Vitis+auriculata&source=bl&ots=xGUrCKpLBG&sig=bHkbKVEW11z-s6rdCyn-4VF_s-A&hl=en&ei=1jdbSvj6JI2U6wOo092VCw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=10>which discusses both these species ( *Cyphostemma auriculata* and *Cissus elongata* ) and they seem very close. Regards, and many many thanks for this ID !!!
