IBG today : Arecaceae : unknown05 : 8 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (5). Perhaps this is not clustered as I thought initially and in that case it seems to be Areca catechu L. fruits seem to be supuri Somehow I have a feeling that it doesn't look the exact SUPURI I see around. At the same time it is also true that since SUPURI is very common I have never observed their features. I was thinking if it can be some other Areca. Areca species in efi so far. I think first picture is different. First one a Dyspsis, other three Areca It seems the first image is an ornamental palm, remaining all are Areca catechu Yes, the first pic is different from the rest. I thank you all for ID help.
