Both R.rugosa and R.calycinoides both appear quite close as per keys in Online Flora of Nepal

However, I feel it is more closer to R.calycinoides rather than R.rugosa, due to

1. Habit being Erect and arching compared to climbing and scandent of R.rugosa

2. Stipule being lacerate

3. Fruiting period being Oct.- Dec. compared to July to Sept. of R.rugosa
