Ficus sarmentosa

[Saroj Kasaju]

I guess the image given under the ID Ficus sarmentosa is not correct.

It rather looks like Ficus bhotanica King (Synonym: Ficus gasparriniana var. laceratifolia (H.Lév. & Vaniot) Corner) . May I have your opinion on this  please ?

another, Didymocarpus aromaticus.

Dear Sir

Greetings of the day!

Thanks for sharing this article, I have gone through this publication and for the sake of registering a publication under respective author either for submitting for MSc or PhD. Without any copyright permissions they had used plant photos from internet as well as efloraofindia website (e.g. Ficus talbotii image shared by me on efloraindia) and questions should be raised and need to send a notice to authors. There are many mistakes in this article, used wrong photographs as well as wrong scientific names. Such articles do not have any pre-review value but damage actual works of scientific community.

I'll send them a notice for this. Thanks again for sharing this.

Kind regards,
Varun
