Dear friends, this post shows sightings of plants which I had mistaken for a very long while as Mallotus nudiflorus (Trevia nudiflora var. nudiflora).
sightings at Tungareshwar Wildlife Sanctuary during different times 


the tell-tale dark pink calyx / buds, easily made out even on top-most branches;
in case of Trevia nudiflora var. nudiflora the calyx are yellowish-green

the fruit has pronounced cleft, the fruits are borne in cluster; 
in case of Trevia nudiflora var. nudiflora, the fruit has very subtle cleft, the fruit is borne solitary or to a maximum of three.
