I saw this climber for the first time in CKBS, South24Pgs, in December 2013. Interestingly again, a little while later my wife phoned me that she had received her medical report diagnosed as having gallstones!

And this is my last upload for this fortnight. We have some more form the family, but distributed in other regions than the central Bengal.

Thank you

Regards

Yes, Didi, 'Bengal Plants' lists it, Bengali name as ছাগলবাটি , but if you want to see this vine in CKBS you will have to get down into a ditch out there.

Yes, cholecystectomy had been done to my wife at Genesis, Kolkata, on the very first day of 2014!

Thank you

Same question. Any character by which you know that it is Naravelia achene rather than a clematis?

Satish Sir,

The KEY in 'Bengal Plants' goes-

(i) petals 0; petiole not produced as a tendril = Clematis

(ii) petals many; petiole produced as a temdril - Naravelia

Of-course the above KEY is based on the distribution in Greater Bengal, and none of the Clematis species listed in the book can be found in this region of Bengal. I didn't see the petals, but leaf tendril has been recorded in my earlier post - https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/pe5owbTS8-s/QWf5XK2vyBMJ. Furthermore, Sir Prain explains, "petiole (in Clematis) sometimes twining but not produced as a tendril."

Thank you

Regards

Satis Sir, not in this thread certainly, but more pictures of the same individual can be viewed in an earlier thread https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/indiantreepix/b1MhXl5lOng, please check the 1st and 3rd pictures.

Thank you
