Hello all,

Request id of this small tree from Tungareshwar. It is about 12 - 15 feet tall and the leaves have a soft, somewhat velvety texture. Flowers and fruits not seen.

Kind regards, Rashmi

Hi,
 If I was to hazard a guess, I would say this is Antidesma ghaesembilla [now called A. pubescens].
                  With regards,
                    Neil Soares.

It look like Morinda pubescens (Rubiaceae) to me.

Looks more closer to Gynochthodes umbellata rather than those at Morinda coreia

It looks like Morinda coreia to me. The bark is typical. A common species in Tungareshwar. It is usually a small tree.
