Dear Friends,

This climber was photographed in Nov. 2008 at Mizoram. These are the only photographs available with me.

This climber reminded me of Dioscorea pentaphylla which we see in Sahyadri ranges...

Date / Time: 12th Nov. / 09:30AM
Location: Mizoram
Habitat: Wild
plant habit: Climber

regards
Prashant

Hopefully this can be Dioscorea pentaphylla is the leaves are palmately compound with 5 leaflets !!

D. oppositifolia is a good choice but can confirm as the leaf orientation is not visible.
