Hi, Have many Trewia nudiflora [Petari / Petani] trees on my property at Shahpur [the photographs of which are available in the archives of this group for comparison]. I do not agree with this diagnosis. With regards, Neil Soares.

Some earlier relevant feedback: “I think this are the the fruits of Trewia nudiflora. I had seen similar fruits last year in Palakkad, Kerala. The id of the tree was confirmed by a botanist friend of mine. Unfortunately I couldn't photograph the fruits then. As you said the fruits in the earlier posts by Pravin ji and Dinesh ji does look different and it confuses me too. Hopefully our experts will help to solve this confusion.

But i am very confused regarding the ID. The fruits of Trewia nudiflora available in the net do not match with mine. Even earlier efI posts by Pravin Ji (https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!searchin/indiantreepix/trewia$20nudiflora/indiantreepix/mvDKkA64exE/zqi5jokubhQJ) and Dinesh Ji (https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!searchin/indiantreepix/trewia$20nudiflora/indiantreepix/lbkwF5QPYgY/5-0xsfwX6XsJ) show different fruits. If the fruits in these attached images are not of Trewia nudiflora then my earlier post of the very same tree (https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/indiantreepix/cl3zczbsij8) is not Trewia nudiflora. Also attaching pictures of a red-whiskered bulbul & a white-throated kingfisher (State bird of West Bengal), perched on another Trewia tree, alongwith. Species : Trewia nudiflora L. ???
