Dear Raja ji & Mani Ji,
I am quite sure this is pineapple!! Never a pine cone which is brown n woody by nature. I will kindly ask Raja Ji for few information to resolve the ID.

1. Complete photo of the fruit (if available) [lower portion of the fruit is missing out in the posted photo]
   
2. Approx size of the fruit.
3. Probable photo of the tree or a description of the tree (size, height, leaves, stem e.tc)

Tanay

How about Pandanus, dear?!

Tanay

[R. Vijayasankar]

Dear Tanay,

 

Nice comparison! but you have to compare with all species of Pandanus, not one alone!!! Because, you may know that there are 15 species Pandanus in India (and about 700 in the world) and they all differ in shape and size of their syncarps / fruits. This could be one of the uncommon endemic species of NE India, for e.g. Pandanus assamensis?

Pine apple is neither a tree, nor occurs in wild in Arunachal Pradesh, isn't it?!!!

With regards

R. Vijayasankar

Thanks for correcting me

Dear all, 

I think it is a pineapple. It used to grow extensively in Siang, and Changlang districts of Arunachal when I was posted there between 78-80 and thereafter on my visits there. We used to get six of them for a rupee then.

cheriyan

[R. Vijayasankar]

Thanks Cheriyan ji for the opinion.

 

Dear Kanwal ji, i think it is your turn now! Please throw more light on the plant...like....who collected? what was the habit?...occurrence (wild/cultivated)...etc. And by any chance do you have picture of the entire plant?

 

I am pretty sure that it is Pandanus. Even the habitat (river in the backround) suggests the same. Lets hear from Kanwal ji and others too...

With regards

R. Vijayasankar

[raja kanwal]

Thanks Vijayasankar ji, I collected this cone near Sesseri river, Lower Dibang Valley District of Arunachal Pradesh. The cone was very hard not like the juicy pineapple. I could't found the entire plant. I am also suspecting that this is Pandanus species, which one please identified? 

I am posting a new picture of cone.

with best regards,

Khilendra S. Kanwal

I too think this is Pandanus. I think I could see a long dry leaf in
the first picture from the top of the fruit!

Regards
Giby

[Dr. Pankaj Kumar]

this is not Pineapple for sure.....
But if u look at history it is called Pine apple for the same reason
that it resembles a pine cone. Before the discovery of this fruit,
they used to call pine cone as pineapple only, but when fruit was
discovered, they gave new term pine cone for the gymnospermous cones
and started calling the other one as Pine apple.

Is it possible to identify this Pandanus fruit ?
