Zehneria scabra has been badly confused in India: please see older post

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/indiantreepix/Melothria$20scabra$20relook/indiantreepix/H2QLQrK4hCs/Bhs4OSVhGwsJ

and the relevant conclusion:

"So our collections having gone under Zehneria scabra in our websites may be sought to be segregated into three species:Zehneria maysorensis with beroadly ovate scabrous leaves, ovate corolla lobes and oblong 8-15 mm long fruits, Z. bodinieri with ovate leaves longer than broad, glabrous leaves, ovate-oblong corolla lobes and globose 8-10 mm fruits, and very similar Z. hookeriana".

Gurcharan Ji, Vijayasankar Ji,   

I take my post as Zehneria maysorensis   as suggested by Vijayasankar Ji and differences explained by you Sir?

Aarti

I had a relook at all the posts in efi site on Zehneria‎ and added keys herein.

It should be Zehneria bodinieri (H. Léveillé) W. J. de Wilde & Duyfjes based on keys at Zehneria‎
