Yesterday I happen to attend a slideshow/presentation where a botanist(Not active on Net) showed a series of Terminalia leaves from different species. She had tried to document the differences and characteristics of glands indifferent individual species. What I learnt was T. bellerica often has glands which are not at the base of the leaves but in the petiole itself which appears slightly swollen midway in its length. It stimulated my curiosity which made me write yesterday's request to Surajit.This is something different than what Neil ji's observations. When I checked elsewhere in whatever data available to me what I got is No glands in T. bellerica. I will check with her again and if possible will try to collect those pictures for opinion.
