However, BSI Flora of India Checklist lists only Solandra maxima (Sesse & Moc.) P.S.Green (syn. Solandra grandiflora sensu Deb). POWO says 'It is a scrambling shrub and grows primarly in the seasonally dry tropical biome(s)' and CoL gives its introduction in Mauritius (I), Sri Lanka (I) (vs 'It is a epiphyte and grows primarly in the wet tropical biome(s)' for Solandra grandiflora Sw. by POWO).
In view, it is better to keep it as Solandra maxima (Sesse & Moc.) P.S.Green only.
