Re: [efloraofindia:168681] Hooghly today - Marasmius rotula (Scop.) Fr. ?

[Tanay Bose]

Dear Surajit Da.

I don't think this is Marasmius rotula. Please check with the images of M.
rotula through Google search and you find noticeable differences.

Re: [efloraofindia:168680] Hooghly -Marasmius sp.?

[Tanay Bose]

Dear Surajit Da.

The photos are of Marasmius, but the first two picture and the remaining
ones are from two different species. The mushrooms in the first two
pictures have wiry stipe, I believe its M. siccus. I am not sure of the of
the second species as its morphology is similar to several different
species of Marasmius.

Re: [efloraofindia:168679] Hooghly - chicken of the woods?

[Tanay Bose]

Dear Surajit Da.

I think the fungus on the wood is decomposing and a hyperparasitic fungus
is growing on it.

 Some earlier relevant feedback:

 Here is today's update
 Thanks and regards
 surajit
   This fungus excretes coloured fluid as can be seen in the
 photographs.

 Perhaps these are known something like bleeding fungus and come from -
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydnellum.

Probably this is Laetiporus, as you predicted. Please keep a watch on it

Re: [efloraofindia:163197] Hooghly - Fuligo sp. ???

[Tanay Bose]

Dear Surajit Da.

I don't think this is a species of *Fuligo*, because I don't find any
characteristics of Myxomycetes (slime mould) in your images. Rather I would
suggest Basidiomycetes. Anastomosing honeycomb gills and your observation
date reminds me of *Serpula* spp. I think this is *Serpula similis*
(Syn: *Merulius
similis*), usually seen on dead deciduous logs during the monsoon in Bengal.

Wishes
Tanay

Re: [efloraofindia:118755] Boraginaceae Week :: Heliotropium ovalifolium at Tungareshwar Wildlife Sanctuary

[Tanay Bose]

Hi Dinesh ji.
It seems from the Plant List that Euploca ovalifolia is now considered as a
synonym of Heliotropium ovalifolium.
Hence, the current accepted name of the plant is Heliotropium ovalifolium.
Regards
Tanay

Re: [efloraofindia:117138] Jatropha gossipifolia

Hi Anand Ji.
*Jatropha gossypiifolia* is the correct spelling based on the"Plant List"
search.
Whenever I have a ambiguity in spelling I always fall back on Plant List as
its
published by Kew Botanic Garden. Kindly check the link below.

Re: [efloraofindia:115838] efloraofindia:''For Id 07052012MR4’’ which Passiflora is this creeping vine at Pune

[Tanay Bose]

Hi  Bhagyashri Ji.
It looks like  *Passiflora foetida* to me too. The best way to confirm is
to smell the
fruits if it turns out to be gross (foetida = bad smell) then you are
confirmed.

R. cyanosperma
is now considered as a synonym of Rhynchosia hirta. Thanks for the ID quite

Hi.
This really tricky one to choose from two species Usha di and Ajinkya Ji
has suggested.
Sadly no cones are visible in the picture. But, I feel this tree is *Araucaria
heterophylla*
*(Norfolk Island Pine), quite a common *introduced* tree in North America
and I got*
*a *chance* to see a bunch of them in my university and this tree surely
matches the*
*morphology.*

Re: [efloraofindia:115408] Rhoeo discolor like pot plant from Hooghly 01-05-12 SK-1

[Tanay Bose]

Hi Surajit Da.
Yes, Rhoeo discolor has two genomes indicated by α & β. During the meiotic
segregation chromosomes comprising of each genomes moves towards the
opposite poles. So that, each gamete has either α or β genome, hence the
heterozygous condition (αβ) is maintained in the filial generation. It is
believed that homozygous condition (αα or ββ) in Rhoeo leads to lethal
mutation. Crossing over and synapsis do happen in the chromosomes but only
at the terminal region of the arms along a restricted part. But, the
sequential and detailed stages are not quite well understood.

Tanay

Hi Usha Di.
Based on my understanding  Tradescantia  and Zebrina are two completely
different plant though both comes from the Commelinaceae.
I always though the later  was commonly known as the wandering Jew. And for
Surajit da I am attaching a link you will come to know about the folklore
of "wandering jew".

Tradescantia spathacea is the accepted name for the plant and Rhoeo

[Tanay Bose]

Hi Satish Ji.
Does your plant has any potential of being  Laguncularia racemosa? This
medium sized mangrove
tree is widely distributed in the tropics. The plant is characterized by
thick, scaly (often reddish) bark
and extra-floral nectaries present at the base of the leaf. Looking at the
2nd photo it seems there
are nectaries present (or may be I am fascinating).

Re: [efloraofindia:115199] Re: Sh. Raman Arunachalam- Our valued member

[Tanay Bose]

Hi All.
It was a privilege to have Raman Ji in our group. He surely has contributed
a lot for the group and wish he will
continue doing so in future. I did take time to go through his website and
was amazed to see his collection on
Bangalore trees. I really appreciate his efforts in documenting the flora
as well as his scientific approach to
organize them. I believe the website will be helpful in identifying many
common trees in Bangalore and around
India.
Regards
Tanay

[efloraofindia:115078] Re: [itpmods:4797] Re: Sh. Surajit Koley- our valued member

[Tanay Bose]

Hi All.
Indeed Surajit Ji has made a mammoth contribution to the group and I
believe he will continue doing so it in future.
He is quite an appreciable personality and has every quality to be used as
an example for new members. The basic
pattern of behaviour which most senior and fellow members would expect
along with the hard work are two most
important characters which I find pleasure to bring up. The most awkward
situation for me is probably his suffix of Sir
with my name. I was quite not aware of his age, members like Muthu, me and
e.tc and probably the youngest chaps
in this group, most members are nearly at the dawn of their evolution at
least I am still evolving. Hence, I will kindly
request Surajit ji to remove the suffix as all other members do.
Best wishes,
Tanay

Re: [efloraofindia:114693] Re: glands on Terminalia arjuna

[Tanay Bose]

Hi Usha Di.
I should confess that I have no idea about the origin of the bulges on the
leaf they can be caused by leaf anomaly
or may be due to insect infestation. I have seen  insects at there larval
stage(?) take shelter inside leaves. I came
to know about this by accident. Once I saw bunch of "mole"
like structures on the mango leaf initially I thought them
to be fungal infection later on making section I found insects within them!

Hi Surajit Ji.
I think you are quite correct, most of the common Bengali plant names has
lot to
do with Sanskrit origin. You will meet me at this time of the day quite
often because
I don't live in India.
