A reply: "Dr. Kunhikannan identified this as follows: The tree is *Holigarna arnottiana Hook. f.* belong to Anacardiaceae, it very allergic to some people, gives blisters on the skin. remedy for the same is the leaves of Terminalia bellirica made into ashes and apply. Fruits are not edible, but eaten by toddy cat/palm civet, for them it is not allergic and any body can see the tree seedlings grows near the Caryota urens tree, because fruits of this tree are also eaten by the same animal. Please name it as Holigarna arnottiana. Aparna"
