Many thanks, Garg ji,

I visited the link - GRAM Looking to ID this Acacia 

I could not find any mention of the name "Senegalia megaladena" in that post. Also I could not find the name of Anup ji.

I tried to expand all the collapsed content in the post, but I could not find the words:  "Senegalia megaladena" or "Anup".

Regards.

[J.M. Garg]

Thanks, Dinesh ji,

Correct link for Anup ji's feedback is in Fabaceae: Acacia sp.

OK, thanks very very much, Garg ji, and many thanks to Anup ji, too.

I am assuming that both the observations in the above post:

1. Sep 13, 2008 ... along Ghodbunder Road

1. Sep 25, 2010 ... at Sarasgad, near Pali

are suggested by Anup ji and yourself as Senegalia megaladena.

I will revise my notes.

Regards.
