Dear Sir, There are two Genera under Primulaceae namely Bonellia and Jacquinia (both formerly under Theophrastaceae). In Flowers of India, there is one species Jacquinia macrocarpa ( http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Jacquinia.html), but the berries are with blunt tip (not pointed as in this figure). In encyclopedia of life, Jacquinia racemosa's type is placed under Bonellia macrocarpa ( http://eol.org/pages/5508526/details). But in the plant list under Bonellia macrocarpa, Jacquinia macrocarpa is treated as synonym but J. racemosa is treated as accepted name.
You may need to check: B. Ståhl and M. Källersjö (2004) . Reinstatement of Bonellia (Theophrastaceae). Novon 14(1): 115-118. and Ståhl, B. 1995. A synopsis of *Jacquinia* (Theophrastaceae) in the Antilles and South America. Nordic J. Bot. 15: 493-511. Hope this will help you in identifying the species!!! regards. *Dr. W.
