Sir, This is a puzzle that i am yet to find any solution. I have opened another thread, asking help, regarding this - https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/3yKWQG3gOI0/wlOHsy88SUUJ.
So far we at eFI, specially directed by Gurcharan Sir, could collect this much data that - 1) only two species *M. cochinchinensis* and *M. subangulata* ssp.* renigera * has similar looking flowers 2) *M. cochinchinensis* has glands on petiles, leaf-blades, bracts (*M. mixta* FI. iii. 709). So, this plant cannot be *M. mixta* Roxb. There is an elaborate paper on Indian *Momordica* - http://www.mgutheses.in/page/?q=T%201079&search=&page=&rad=#1. Thus document also deals with variations on the two related taxa. But this doesn't help. Because, this document also informs *M. subangulata* ssp. * renigera* has minute bract on female flower. Thank you, Regards, surajit On Sun, Jul 21, 2013 at 5:08 PM, J.M.
