Names of Plants in India :: Gujarati names of Ichnocarpus frutescens

Dear friends and Viplav ji,

Please validate Gujarati names of Ichnocarpus frutescens ...

ધૂરીબેલ dhuribel, કાલી ઉપલસરી kali upalsari

Dear Dinesh ji,

To my knowledge, Ichnocarpus frutescens is known as શ્યામલતા in Gujarati. The names ધૂરીવેલ and ઉપલસરી (also known as ઉપલસારી or ઉપલસળી) are commonly used for Hemidesmus indicus.

કાળી ઉપલસરી could well be a plausible candidate for Ichnocarpus frutescens but I have not encountered it so far.

Best wishes, Viplav

Thank you very very much Viplav ji. This is great help.

I will go with શ્યામલતા !

Regards.
