Hello friends

This climber was seen by the roadside near Tamhini ghat near Pune, MH in Aug 2019.
I guess this is Dioscorea hispida.

Very similar to  D. pentaphylla because plant has 3-5 foliate leaves, 
With regards.

Alka ji, agreeing with Paradesi ji; your posted plant is Dioscorea pentaphylla. The pendant fruits are tell-tale.
Dioscorea hispida has easy to recognize leaflets, and fruits though hanging, are quite different looking.
Regards.

Thanks so much Paradesi ji and Dinesh ji for correcting the ID.

I had seen a similar plant at Rajgad which also had similar fruits, would like to get the same verified. I will re-open that thread.

Thanks and regards
