Dear friends,
 
Is this species of Madhuca different than M. longifolia (var. latifolia OR longifolia) ?
... the query because the flowers are found with very short stalks, seeming to look fixed rather than "hanging" (by their long stalks).
 
Place: near Panorama Point, Matheran.
Date: 08 DEC 09
 
ID please.
 
Regards.

Hi Dinesh,
   Agree with Prashant. It is Xantholis tomentosa [Sideroxylon tomentosum] locally called Kate Kubhal. Sending one of my photographs for comparison.
                      Regards,
                       Neil.
