It appears to be G. oppositifolia.

Plenty in the Maruthamalai, coimbatore region and other dry regions.  

Attaching  images of G. oppositifoia for comparison.

Please crosscheck.

Thanks, Kishor ji

Hi, Kishor ji,

Pl. confirm.

Sir,

The correct citation is G. oppositifolia Roxb. ex DC. and it is in my recent paper on Roxburgh's Grewia which will appear in the next issue of Journal (I will notify you when it will publish).

Regarding the synonym, all appears to be fine, though I am not doubtful about Grewia orientalis Roxb. ex Wight & Arn. 
The G. orientalis Roxb. is nothing but the G. orientalis L., and it is not referable to G. oppositifolia Roxb. ex DC.

 

Wight & Arn. in their Prodr. Fl. Ind. Orient. (1837) referred Roxburgh's Icon 222 for their G. emarginata, which was a drawing Roxburgh himself considered for his Flora Indica (1832) as G. orientalis and also mentioned Rheede's Hort. Malabaricus (1865-1868) drawing (Tab. 46. attached below).

Further, Wight & Arn. (1837) also considered G. orientalis Roxb. Fl. Ind. 2. p. 586 as a synonym for G. orientalis L.

 

The specimen was sent by Roxburgh to Smith as "G. microcos" initially, which is the type of Roxburgh's G. orientalis available now at LINN.

So G. orientalis Roxb. ex Wight & Arn = G. orientalis L.

Also attaching the icons of G. orientalis and G. oppositifolia by Roxburgh here for clarification.

I hope the little information I provided is helpful. 

Thank you

Sir,

In the second paragraph please read it as "though I am doubtful about.." instead of  "though I am not doubtful about.." 

It was an error while typing.

Thank you
