Though I am not sure in the absence of details of the flowers and leaves, it could be a species of Spondias. Please provide the required photographs for confirmation or otherwise

Received the following from Shri Pradip Krishen author of Jungle Trees of Central India:- "The tree in your picture looks like Garuga pinnata (kekad), to me, although I can't see the leaf clearly enough and the colour of the fruit is a little off.
I haven't seen Aphanamixis anywhere in MP"

Message from Shri RS Murthy, IFS, member secretary MP Biodiversity Board Bhopal:-
"seems to be Garuga pinnata, F Burseraceae
Vernacular name kehad but its identity is compound leaves,but photo is confusing due to two type of leaves there i.e. oval two leaves and one compound.specimen of this tree you can see at Ekant park near range office.
But similar fruit found in other trees like Melia azaderach, Cordia dichotoma and other species.

Please photograph
Full tree with canopy
Leaves separately
Bark
Flower and fruit alone if present.

Detailing from my expert."

This is the problem. Results in unnecessary guesses as similarities of plant parts of different species are well known. Persons who want ID should submit photographs of all the plant parts if available and close ups. Should avoid cropped photos to show only a part and identify. This is not quiz. of course some times it is not possible. Only under exceptional circumstances people can send such photographs. I think Saroj ji's, Prof Gurucaran Singh ji, Taps ji & Dinesh ji and few more in the group are exceptional & one should follow their model which is ideal in submitting the photos. This is my firm opinion.

I agree with you dear sir. This was clicked by a friend who had no idea that I would be sending it to this esteemed group. I will take a trip to this spot at the earliest and will click detailed photographs of different parts of the tree. My sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Thank you so much. Please do not worry. Such things do happen to every one. But should not be a habit. Nevertheless, I appreciate your realisation.

Please contribute your best to the eflora.💐
