While the first three photos look like Phyllanthus debilis, the last two photos may be P. fraternus.

Dear Friends

 It seems to be Phyllanthus amarus

The images represent a mixture.  The last two photos may be Phyllanthus amarus, as pointed out by Prof. Munshi, which has one male flower and one female flower per axil but this feature is not clear in the images.

[Anurag Sharma]

Thank you Dr. Tapas. I have not realised perhaps that the group of bushes of Phyllanthus sp. may have contained more than one species while photographing.

Thank you Dr. Abid.

The first three photos are also matching with Phyllanthus talbotii, a rare endemic occurring in Karnataka.  Kindly try to collect flowering and fruiting materials.

[Anurag Sharma]

Sir, I will try to do so on my next trip there. Thank you.
