I may be wrong but I still think of all ID proposed in this thread this one is closer to T. ovata, Description can be found at FoC (leaf base rounded obtuse or cordate in T. hirsuta Wight, FBI.IV.43). Slender, acuminate poniard shaped follicles is another character.

Thank you

Sir, I think Tylophora ovata (Lindl.) Hook. ex Steud is a fairly probable id.

Thank you.

If the follicles (in this thread) @ https://groups.google.com/g/indiantreepix/c/NzJJEegxLfE/m/FL2XumwYGkQJ look like the illustrations -
and
http://www.efloras.org/object_page.aspx?object_id=85951&flora_id=2 I still think there is a fair chance, even if it is not listed in Mizoram flora.

As for distribution one can view KEW map - http://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:102807-1

Still, I can be wrong altogether.


Thank you.

" Lianas to 5 m, rusty hispid, villous, or pubescent except for adaxial leaf surface and sometimes follicles. ..... "

Those are the exact words, copied from Flora of China.
Also, attached here Flora of British India entry.


But, that doesn.t conclude the id, I merely suggested the possibility!


Thank you.

I agree with you. After going through GBIF (from India) images and specimens, I find that there is a lot of variation in the leaves' pubescence and flowers.
I think matches as per GBIF specimen and FOI images.
