Dear Darshanji and friends,
Thanks for the genus level validation. I understand from Frlht 's vernacular names that Cayratia sp are called Kattu Pirandai in Tamil.
The local name in Alagarkoil seems to be Kali Pirandai. Tamil speaking friends, please confirm whether Kali pirandai is an accepted name.
Thanks.
Regards,
Badri

This is Cayratia pedata, also called as 'panni kodi' in Tamil, since the wild pigs (wild boars) are fond of the tuberous roots of this plant.

I think it may be Cayratia tenuifolia (Wight & Arn.) Gagnep. or C. japonica (most likely) being 5 pedately foliolate as per Keys in Flora of Peninsular India

Dear Garg Ji,

It looks Tetrastigma leucostaphylum to me.

With regards,

N. Karmegam.

[J.M. Garg]

Looks different from Tetrastigma leucostaphylum (Dennst.) Alston ex Mabb.

I think more closer to Tetrastigma sulcatum (P. Lawson) Gamble as per comparative images at Tetrastigma

[S Kasim .]

Seems to be Cayratia japonica

I think it is Cayratia pedata only (as originally identified by Vijayasankar ji) as per images and details herein.

It looks different from Tetrastigma leucostaphylum (Dennst.) Alston ex Mabb. as well as from Tetrastigma sulcatum (P. Lawson) Gamble 

It also looks different from Cayratia japonica as per GBIF.
