Dear Dr. Neil, Thanks a lot for the pictures, appreciate it. Today I made a small scraping on one of the tree and a from it exuded blood-like sap. The leaves of the tree (species 4 b, the one that I had posted yesterday), are exactly like D.latifolia.

Pterocarpus santalinus [Red Sanders] occurs naturally only in a small area in Andhra Pradesh and adjoining parts of Tamil Nadu. It is obviously planted on my property. Sending you photographs of the leaves of all 3 for comparison. With regards, Neil Soares. --- On Thu, 8/12/10, Raptor Conservation <raptorconse...@yahoo.com> wrote: From: Raptor Conservation <raptorconse...@yahoo.com> Subject: Re: [efloraofindia:44105] Flora at my farm in Hyderabad - Please ID this tree - 3 To: indiantreepix@googlegroups.com, "Neil Soares" <drneilsoa...@yahoo.com> Date: Thursday, August 12, 2010, 9:45 PM Dear Neil ji, Some of the locals think this Jit-eggi (Dalbergia latifolia), but they are not sure. If possible, can you post a few pictures of D.latifolia. This too is a species that is on my 'to plant' list. What are the features that tell apart P.marsupium and P.santalinus? Thanks.
