Hebri :: Argyreia FOR VALIDATION :: DVJAN28 : 5 posts by 3 authors. 4 images.
Sita Nadi Nature Camp (part of Someshwara Wildlife Sanctuary) ... Dakshina Kannada, Karnataka
Date: 27 DEC 2014 ... Altitude: about 80 m asl
ID please.
Convolvulaceae vine, fruiting. The fruit about 1 cm across.
Not able to place - wildly guessing it to be some species of Argyreia. Not able to recollect if seen earlier.
Hoping to get ID validated to genus level.
¿ Argyreia ? ... (family: Convolvulaceae)
I am not familiar with the plant shown and I am unable to confirm nor rule out an Argyreia.
The sepals resemble in some ways those of :
Argyreia adpressa
Argyreia populifolia
Argyreia roxburghii

although they do not match those I mentioned.
I think flowers may be required to assist in the ID.
Many thanks to ... for his thoughts; indeed more aspects of the plant are needed here.
Hopefully, I would make it to this place in coming seasons; will do my best to get to the flowers.
