Strange as it may look Zehneria scabra (L.f.)

My doubts are supported by recent nomenclature update by Renner and Pandey in 2013 They do not list Zehneria scabra for India, and Melothria perpusilla (Blume) Cogn. is cited as synonym of Zehneria perpusilla (Bl.) Bole and Almeida.......but as per citation this species does not grown in India.

You seem to have made my contention in the below thread more stronger "So our collections having gone under Zehneria scabra in our websites may be sought to be segregated into three species: Zehneria maysorensis with beroadly ovate scabrous leaves, ovate corolla lobes and oblong 8-15 mm long fruits, Z. bodinieri with ovate leaves longer than broad, glabrous leaves, ovate-oblong corolla lobes and globose 8-10 mm fruits, and very similar Z. hookeriana" Yes, ..., thanks again for sensing this important issue and calling for a revisit of Zehneria. This will enable us to update the nomenclature in our database. As per the literature, and as also pointed out by you in an earlier thread, Z. scabra and the genus Melothria (now regarded "confined to America") do not occur in India. This is a major shift in our understanding as we have been using these names to our Indian plants. While the distinction between Z. bodinieri and Z. maysorensis are clear, the differences between the former species and Z. hookeriana are still vague (at least to me). A well-defined key to the Zehneria species in India would help sort out the confusion more effectively. I had a relook at all the posts in efi site on Zehneria and added keys herein.
