Hi swagat ji, I think it is Cryptostegia grandiflora Or cryptostegia madagascariensis . Regd Devendra --- On Fri, 28/8/09, shubhada nikharge <shubhada...@yahoo.co.in> wrote:

Thanks a lot Prashant ji, Shantju ji, Shubhada ji & Devendra ji.

 

It is 'Crtptostegia madagascariensis'

 

But Shubhada ji it is called 'Kavli' 'कावळी' in Marathi.

 

What you say... 'Dudhvel' 'दुधवेल' that is different... that's called 'Argyreia strigosa'

 

Regards,

It is not Cryptostegia, in which follicles are  distinctly ridged or winged. Here they are very smooth, obviously Cryptolepis.

Hi,  As Prof. Gurcharan Singh has stated, it looks like the Wax-leaved Climber [Cryptolepis buchanani] locally called Dudh-vel. Sending some of my photographs.                     With regards,                       Neil Soares. --- On Sat, 8/29/09, Gurcharan Singh <sin...@sify.com> wrote:

Dear all,

 

I agree that it is 'Cryptolepis buchnani'  'दुधवेल' 'Dudhvel' in Marathi.

 

But when I refered 'Flowers of Sahyadri' it is clearly printed on page nos. 84, 196 and 203 that 'Cryptolepis buchnani' ... 'कावळी' 'Kavli' in Marathi. Now I have made corrections on my copy.
