Satish ji

Could you upload a photograph of magnified fruit, that will confirm its identity. Somehow I feel the stamen number is not more than 10. T. rhomboidea usually has 10-15 stamens and T. pentandra 5(usually)-10. The two species have often been confused, but the fruits are distinctive.

Thanks Gurcharan ji
The plant only had flowers at that time or I have missed the fruits.
Anyway thanks for making me aware of this feature. Next time I will remember to note it.
