I am afraid it is not. In Duabanga leaves are much slender, moreover,
the fruits have persistent calyx like structures, even when they are
well developed. Moreover, the fruits have suture like markings, which
these fruits do not have.

... could it be Spondias pinnata ? ... commonly known as: Andaman mombin, Indian hog plum, Indian mombin, wild mango

Regards.

[sibdas ghosh]

Thanks Dineshji- that is a good posibility.

Hello Dinesh Ji and Ghosh Ji
the chances of this being Spondias pinnata is less as it has more
number of leaflets, but this is some species of Spondias, more closely
to Spondias cyatherea (the number of leaflets are ) commonly known as
Vilayati Ambada.

correct me if i am incorrect.

Satish Pardeshi

Pl. refer to my mail dated 7th Aug.09. I posted two pics one of
Spondias pinnata and the other S. dulcis. This one with more number of
leaflets is likely dulcis, and the other pinnata. Thanks to all for
help identifying the plants.

I think it should be Spondias pinnata (L. f.) Kurz as per keys and details at Spondias‎
