Garg ji, we have to decide whether our plant is S. macranthum Dunal, now S. crinitum Lam. (branches lack thin straight prickles, corolla shallowly lobed)

or S. macranthum Carr., now wrightii Benth. (branches with long straight prickles, corolla deeply lobed) please see images on POWO

I think ours should be S. crinitum Lam.

Thanks, Singh ji,

Pl. see my analysis at Solanum macranthum from Chikkamagalur Mullayanagiri Road-GS17022022-2
S. macranthum Dunal or S. crinitum Lam. is also not listed in BSI checklist
