Hello friends

Saw another set of berries along the Govindghat-Ghangaria trail, Uttarakhand in Aug 2018.

They were bigger, around 1 inch in length.

Requested to please provide ID. Are these some Berberis as well?

Thanks and regards
Alka Khare

Thanks Garg ji.

However, I think the black appendage at the end of the fruit (I do not know what it is called) is absent in these fruits. Also they are bigger.

I think they are not the same ones as those posted here.

These are definitely not B. glaucocarpa and B. aristata. I am not sure what are these, this is interesting as I can’t see any spines and 1 inch berries are also not common in Berberis-though leaves look like Berberis.
