Sir,

"Bengal Plants" describes six Ziziphus species. This one seems to be the Ziziphus oenopolia (L.) Mill. or SHIAKUL (SHEKUL) in Bengali.

Thank you,

Regards,

surajit

Hi, Garg Sir,

As I am well aware of the fact that you are always on the move to resurface older posts as per necessity I think this post should be rechecked.

This may not be Ziziphus oenopolia (L.) Mill, as I identified earlier because of the field guide I have (authored by certain Dr.) which informs Ziziphus oenopolia (L.) Mill has single axillary flower, growing in to single axillary fruit.

Thank you.

Regards,

surajit

Forwarding again for Id assistance please.

Some earlier relevant feedback:

Good morning Sir and thank you very much for the probable id. The problem is petiole is shorter than what has been recorded in FoP or FoC, but then there are many cultivars.

Regards,

surajit

Surajit ji's ID seems to be correct.   I do not think it is Ziziphus mauritiana

Hi,
 This looks like Ber [Z. mauritiana] to me. Sending some of my photographs of Z. oenoplia for comparison.
                  With regards,
                     Neil Soares.

Good morning Neil Sir, Mahadeswara Sir

This is getting very complicated.

I have a recent post, that looks like the photographs attached by Neil Sir, and it has been identified as Z. oenopolia (L.) Miller - https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/1HNqkcYbwUo/W0Yg4tkAMloJ. Illustrations can also be found at - http://www.plantillustrations.org/species.php?id_species=1083172 and supporting - http://opendata.keystone-foundation.org/ziziphus-oenoplia-l-miller.

The plant in this thread doesn't look  like the one in the above or in the attached pics by Neil Sir. But, does look like - http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Ziziphus_oenoplia_12.JPG !!! And also - http://opendata.keystone-foundation.org/ziziphus-mauritiana-lam or http://www.plantillustrations.org/species.php?id_species=1233670!!!

The most varied illustrations are of Z. jujuba Miller - http://www.plantillustrations.org/species.php?id_species=1083115 and my plant also looks like - http://www.plantillustrations.org/illustration.php?id_illustration=131249.

Thank you Mahadeswara Sir. Thank you Neil Sir.

Regards,

surajit
