Oh my God!!!

Dinesh ji,

Please delete the synonym Antidesma alexiterium C.Presl. The name is indeed mentioned by C.Presl. in Epimel. Bot. and all search engines are showing this name on the authority of C.Presl but look at the following link: Here it is clearly attributed to the authority of Linnaeus. Hence A. alexiteria sensu C.Presl (as alexiterium), non L. attributed to the Philippines is a misidentification for Antidesma montanum Blume var. montanum. Please delete this synonym.

Antidesma alexiteria L. is the type species of the genus Antidesma.

Here is the link: https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/40597378#page/236/mode/1up

Here are further common names for Antidesma montanum:

Local names: Asm.: Pani–heloch; Beng: Shiyal buka. Kan.: Neerahanchi–mara, Kudivaala–soppa; Kh.: Dieng–soh–lang–ngiu, Dieng–pothar; Lepcha: Kunchur–kung; Mal.: Putharaval; Nep.: Kalo–bilauni; Or.: Kath–jamrala; Tam.: Paei–eechchi, Kalakalattha.

Regards.

Tapas.
