Dear all,
Please, ID this plant seen on river beds of the Konar, below the dam.
Both lianas or stranglers.

Unfortunately now flowers. Photograhed in fruiting season.

Yes, Combretum roxburghii Spreng. is one possibility.

I would like to know from the experts that why the new name, Combretum album Pers., Syn. Pl. 1: 411. 1805, replacing the illegitimate name Combretum decandrum Roxb., Pl. Coromandel 1: 43, t. 59. 1796, non Jacq. 1760 is not acceptable? Why the name Combretum roxburghii Spreng., Syst. Veg. 2: 331. 1825, nom. nov. published much later is acceptable?

I am now in receipt of a clarification from an expert.
Persoon (1805) proposed the new name in anticipation of future acceptance and therefore it is not acceptable.
Hence, the name, Combretum roxburghii Spreng. is the accepted name for the species and to be applied for the images here.
Kind regards,
Tapas.
