Flowers look different from those at https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/m---z/s/smilacaceae/smilax/smilax-elegans

Are male and female flowers different?

Smilax glaucophylla Klotzsch ??

Thank you.

Saroj Kasaju

[J.M. Garg]

I think looks different as per http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=200027920

[Saroj Kasaju]

Tried all possibilities according to the EFN listing but no luck.

Only matching elevation is : Smilax aspera , Smilax elegans , Smilax ferox, Smilax glaucophylla, Smilax lanceifolia, 

Smilax menispermoidea, Smilax rigida !

Thank you.

Thank you.

[J.M. Garg]

Elevation given in efn may not always be correct.

[Saroj Kasaju]

I agree on changing elevation and seasonality,

however, we follow the information as a basis.

Thank you.

I think this may be Smilax aspera L. as per details and images herein.
