A reply:

"Identifying bamboos by photographs only is not as easy as other flowering plants and for correct identification one needs to see the specimens for study. However these climbing species from Andaman and Nicobar may be some members of either Neomicrocalamus, Melocalamus or Dinochloa. One seems like a new species. If u can arrange for me to see the specimen, it will be very nice as I am working on Bamboos only and am very much interested in this. It will be my pleasure to identify these specimens.
With thanks and regards.
