[efloraofindia:32970] Ficus sp.for ID

[Satish Phadke]

I saw this ficus tree on Vetal Tekdi.
Not a fully grown tree so no aerial roots observed.
Leaf size 10 cm *5cm ; petiole 5cm
Can any guess be made without the fruits?

The grooved petiole, lamina shape and venation suggests Ficus
amplissima. This bears short aerial roots and whitish small figs
crowded at the end of branches. Regards, Shrikant

Hello,

Could be F. microcarpa or F. retusa. Just a guess as i am not very
sure of the id.

Hi,

I too think that this is F. amplissima. The very distinct 3 ribbed
base is another important character for this species. A common
indigenous species distributed in the Peninsular India, SL and
Maldives Isl.
