Yes, it appears to be Clerodendrum species, though I went through Clerodendrum diversity in Northeast India

Thanks for sharing the pictures.

I think this plant is Clerodendrum lasiocephalum C.B. Clarke.

Lately, it was merged with Clerodenrum chinense (Osbeck.) Mabb., but I strongly believe this to be a distinct species.

Regards,

Ritesh

Thanks, Ritesh ji,
I tried this. But when found it to be syn. with C.chinensis with white flowers, I got confused.

Hi, Ritesh ji,

I could find three specimens of Clerodendrum lasiocephalum C.B.Clarke in GBIF.

Specimen from East Bengal seems to match with our plant (without opened corolla). While other two from Upper Burma look different as per

http://mediaphoto.mnhn.fr/media/1441353397759fKKyqbGRLHk9FVYc

http://mediaphoto.mnhn.fr/media/14413533977854R2otXJkuHADSca5

FBI gives the following description as per IBIS Flora:

Clarke ; leaves ovate acuminate dentate pubescent, panicle subcapitate, Calyx-segments 2/3 in. linear-subulate.

MISHMEE ; Griffith (Kew Distrib, n. 6055).

Branches pubescent upwards. Leaves opposite, 10 by 1/2 in., base cuneate or rounded, membranous, sparsely pubescent on both surfaces ; petiole 2 in. Panicle sessile, 2-3 in. diam., dense, depressed-globose, pubescent ; bracts linear. Calyx divided, nearly to the base; segments flaccid caudate, pubescent. Corolla not seen. Drupe 1/3 in. diam., red.

In view, you may be right that it was merged with Clerodendrum chinense (Osbeck.) Mabb., but I strongly believe this to be a distinct species.
