Pongamia pinnata?: I found some of these Pongamia pinnata trees fruiting in Panhala during Dec 2010 trip
Apart from the conventional shape of the fruits some round fruits were also observed. Is it normal or unusual? Is the tree ID correct? I have never seen this earlier. -For me it looks like Millettia pinnata ( syn. Pongamia pinnata) only. I verified the leaves and fruits of the tree in front of my house. They match. On this tree the galls are usually formed especially on leaves. Most
of the time one can see deformed leaves with galls. Perhaps the spherical formations in the photograph may be initiation of such galls at the end of the fallen fruits base. But, I am not sure. - Two types of galls are commonly seen in Pongamia pinnata: one with elongated swellings on leaf-surface, caused by Eriophyes cheriani; and the other with globose, hard, 5-8 mm dia., spherical structures that are often mistaken for normal fruits, caused by Asphondylia pongamiae (Source: Mani, M.S. 1965.

pink & white flowers on Karanj [2 Attachments]: While going through my cell photographs, I came across two types of flowers on Karanj- Pogamia- One snapped at Bhiwandi Wada road at my Native place Kavad, this was taken on 12 April 2009 shows pink flowers of Karanj. second snap taken on road to Bandavgadh MP, this was taken on 4 June 2009, This Karanj flowers show white flowers. Is there any subspecies in variety of Karanj? Is there any Botanist's forum where I can put this question ? The pictures are not too clear as also I am not an expert botanist. But I think the first picture is Millettia peguensis and the other one Pongamia or Karanj. Just a guess.

Help needed with Tree ID : 5 posts by 4 authors. Attachments (6) This is one of the most numerous avenue trees here in Mayur Vihar in New Delhi. Leaves come in spring and almost all specimens that I have seen have the characteristic mottling as seen in the photographs. Each specimen is quite a spectacle,with trunks that seems to grow without any plan. I think I remember them flowering around August September. Very small white flowers, numerous and somewhat fragrant. The barks are silver, rough with small grains and the trunks have large bumps too. What I found intersting was one secondary branch which was actually growing with a negative gradient. Most of the specimens are twisted in odd shapes. I don't know if that is a characteristic of the tree or the efforts of local arborists who trim the trees every winter or two. Hoping for a positive ID on this tree that I see so many times everyday.

What surprised me was that the tree had spherical fruits (dried ones) hanging like grapes. Kindly have a look at enclosed photographs. Could this be due to some disease?? I also observed the same at Barvi, Badlapur - which is deciduous forest. Wonder, I couldn`t report or give significance importance to it. Nice photographs ... Very common in Delhi. I really doubt if they have globular fruits coz this being pushed as a biodiesal tree a lot of work jas been done on genetic variability. May be its drying of flower buds. I seem to see scale encrustations on the twigs which could have caused the drying ..., those spherical structures are not fruits. The following note from my book: "Note: Two types of galls are commonly observed: one with elongated swellings on leaf-surface, said to be caused by Eriophyes cheriani Massee; and the other with globose, hard, 5-8 mm dia., spherical structures that are often mistaken for normal fruits, reported to be caused by Asphondylia pongamiae Felt. (Mani, 1965)." please bear with me, and explain... how come an infection has proper branching pattern and looks like they are replacing some normal structure like a flower bud and bunches of them are hanging?? .. I know these round things are not pongamia fruits they look like this see attached file... I was merely responding to the description that it was globose fruits "What surprised me was that the tree had spherical fruits (dried ones) hanging like grapes. Kindly have a look at enclosed photographs. Could this be due to some disease??" by ... If you refer to [efloraofindia:27751] Pongamia pinnata the conversion of reproductive parts into galls is a little more clearer though not as clear as for Id. here we can see half the flower cluster has set pods. In the present case unless I can feel it it could be dried flower buds too for which ... may have a better idea. Leaf galls by the eriophid mite are very distinct and are more prevalent than the woody galls. I understand that the shape/structure of galls is determined by factors such as the plant part in question, stimuli from the gall-making organism and the response from the host plant. This one is a leaf gall formed probably by Aceria pongamiae mite: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:PongamiaPinnataGall.jpg The globose structures are probably of floral-galls as they are seen in panicles.
