confirmation.

Not Chitralekha, if we follow 2010 Kew Plant List, eFlora of China and eFlora of Pakistan and Tropicos.

Pongamia pinnata is the lone species of monotypic genus

Thanks Dr. Gurcharan Singh. Then shouldn't the name be corrected in
flowersofIndia.net site? Also other corrections such as placing
Tectona in family Lamiaceae and not Verbenaceae (hope I am correct)
should be made. I, and probably many others, take for granted that the
names and families given in this site are correct.
Regards,
Chitralekha

Dear Chitraleks

FOI does still have some pending corrections, which Tabish ji will make sooner or later. I have been writing to him whenever I find some abberation, and he has been making necessary corrections. He teaches Physics in Jamia Milia Islamia, New Delhi. You can write to him directly also.
