Re: [efloraofindia:42061] Re: Rasana from Panipat
Rasna is the correct name for Pluchea lanceolata and is published in The Ayurvedic Pharmacopoea of India, Vol.III which is a legal document of Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Govt of India. I agree with Dr. Pankaj that the same name is used for Vanda tesellata in various literature but don't agree with his statement big mistake. It can be observed in many cases that same plant is known locally by different names and vice versa. Hope this will clear the matter.

May we please point out at the format whenever key features are missing? Regards, Shrikant xx Am banking on my familiarity with this sand paper fig tree. May not be thorough familiarity, but these figs have a tell-tale yellow nipple ... and in any given angle, the tree has some of its figs showing them for sure. The arrangement of the figs too, is note-worthy ... they are not clustered, but aligned along the slender branches, usually in pairs, growing in all angles. Photo attached. The tree looks beautiful when fruiting, especially when devoid of leaves. A photo attached. Though the size of leaves is important, in this plant, the interesting feature is the rough texture of the leaves -- worth feeling and realizing !! in most of the languages , this tree is named for the abrasive nature of its leaves.

Re: [efloraofindia:42107] ID of the plant
The pest in the picture usually stays on shrubs and hibernate in unsuitable weather conditions. In few years time it succeeds in killing the host. Mosty it is carried by ants. It infested my hibiscus plant and other hibiscus plant in the vicinity. Where ever there was sun these pests work hard and took extra time to kill the plants, in my house where there is no sun four months in a year the plant died faster. They infest other flowering shrubs also, I did not notice any non-flowering shrub, so I cannot comment. The other the biger member of the family Which is also known as mealy bug (as told by Senior horticulturists of CPWD), have infested large trees on New Delhi roads and hop from tree to tree, though the trees so far are in good health. In few societis in Delhi it has infested Muchkund (Pterospermum acerifolium) trees and starting entering the flats and in their ACs and every nook and corner. They are really a nasty pests.

The coffee board has come out with information with regards to practices to control mealy bugs. In the literature distributed from them, I find that mealy bugs are immobile sucking pests. I learnt that the best way to control the spread is to control the population of ants nests. I was made to understand that there is a symbiotic relationship between ants and mealy bugs. The ants move the nymphs of mealy bugs and place them in succulent areas of tender shoots. Once they are placed in the place, the nymph attaches itself to the succulent spot and starts sucking the sap. The ants benefit by the honeydew secreted by the mealy bugs and feed on it. I have never found any plant in my farm that has mealybugs and no ants. If however, you have any new information that contradicts it, am willing to study it with an open mind.

Re: [efloraofindia:42150] Re: Tamarindus indica L.
My source, well known book L. H. Bailey Manual of Cultivated Plants writes that the generic name Tamarindus is derived from the Arabic Tamar-Hindi meaning Indian Date. This is also confirmed by web information: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080313220541AA9Noxo Persians and the Arabs who called it tamar hindi (Indian date, from the date-like appearance of the dried pulp), giving rise to both its common and generic names. Unfortunately, the specific name, indica, also perpetuates the illusion of Indian origin. The fruit was well known to the ancient Egyptians and to the Greeks in the 4th Century B.C. http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/morton/tamarind.html Native to tropical Africa, the tree grows wild throughout the Sudan and was so long ago introduced into and adopted in India that it has often been reported as indigenous there also, and it was apparently from this Asiatic country that it reached the Persians and the Arabs who called it *tamar hindi *(Indian date, from the date-like appearance of the dried pulp), giving rise to both its common and generic names. Unfortunately, the specific name, *indica, *also perpetuates the illusion of Indian origin. The fruit was well known to the ancient Egyptians and to the Greeks in the 4th Century B.C.

According to GRIN also S. colais (Buch.-Ham. ex Dillw.) Mabb. is the correct name. There are two things to support it, firstly Mabberly has made his combination in 1978, whereas as Chatterjee made his in 1948, former is more recent. Secondly basionym Bignonia colais (1837) antedates Dipterosperma personatum Hassk. (1842), and hence if the two species are to be treated as synonyms, S. colais is preferred choice as correct name. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
