Pueraria tuberosa?: This climber was observed by us near Mulshi near the TATA gate. I don't remember the name you told at that time. I think this plant is Pueraria tuberosa. This is a distant shot as it was in a private area where photography was forbidden.
- Yes, it is Pueraria tuberosa of Fabaceae, Dari or Vidarikand in marathi since it has tuberous roots.
- From last month I am visiting to the Traditional Healers and explaining about the harms due to Radiation Poisoning with pictures and small films collected from net. The Healers are giving their suggestions for
prevention as well as cure. Pueraria is one of the herbs many of them are suggesting. Please see attached Hindi article on Possible Radiation Herbs.

Please identify this Climber NS 6: Photographed at my farm at Shahapur last weekend. Had last year posted photographs of this for identification [which unfortunately was inconclusive] and they are available at this link
Have deliberately added photograph 3 which besides featuring the climber in question [at the top] also showcases Butea parviflora / Palas [on the right] in addition to Celastrus paniculatus [Jyotismati], Dioscorea bulbifera [Kadu Karanda] & Carissa congesta [Carvanda].
Unfortunately have not observed this climber either flowering or fruiting.
Could this be the Indian Kudzu [Pueraria tuberosa] ?
I was about to say Spatholobus but then I saw the previous link.
I think its high time for your to dig it out. If you find the tubers below then it should be Pueraria tuberosa.
In Jharkhand tribals call it Patal Kohda Literally meaning UNDERGROUND PUMPKIN!!
Difficult, almost impossible to find the origin of these climbers due to the thick vegetation. Await other opinions. Meanwhile will keep a lookout for the fruit later [when the climber is leafless] and the flowering [which occurs beween February and April].
It is the Indian Kudzu. It had flowered recently and I had posted the photographs here.

trifoliolate Leguminosae ID from Hooghly 30/10/12 sk3:  
Found this vine inside a PWD compound. A Pueraria sp.?
Species : UNKNOWN
H & H : wild vine; trifoliolate; climbs more than 20 feet
Date : 23/10/12, 11.00 a.m.
Place : Hooghly
Affirmative. This looks like the Indian Kudzu [Pueraria tuberosa]. Sending one of my more recent photographs for comparison. My previous photographs of this are available at this link

Thank you very much, i found your post. I had a hesitation if this could be Mucuna pruriens also, but ... also identified this as Pueraria tuberosa.
These days i have stopped late night browsing, received your mail this morning.
Thank you once again for the photograph, link and ID.

QUERY :: Bengali name for Pueraria tuberosa :  5 posts by 3 authors.
Please help me with name(s) of Pueraria tuberosa (Roxb. ex Willd.) DC.
One name is:
Shimia batraji ... Ref: The Useful Plants of India by NISCAIR
Please help with this name in native script.

... this could be the name in native script ... শিমিআবাতরাজী ... do please validate, yields no search results on internet.
Reference: Purnnachandra Ordia Bhashakosha
Flora Indica doesn't mention any Bengali name for this plant.
Hortus Suburbanus Calcuttensis also gives no Bengali name.
Bengal Plants does mention it as SHIMIA BATRAJI, so does An English Index.... (Piddington). The Bengali script could be any of শিমিয়া বাতরাজি / শিমিয়া বতরাজি / শিমীয়া বত্রাজি . But, i am not sure if this name is popular here. For An English Index to the Plants of India also mentions one plant, Dolichos glutinosus, as SHIMI BATRAJEE in Hindi.
It seems to me that the above mentioned Bengali name for Pueraria tuberosa comes from Greater Bengal, in those days.
Many many thanks ...  for the clarification, as well as for the possible variants of the name in Bangla script.

QUERY :: Konkani name for Pueraria tuberosa : 3 posts by 2 authors.

Have known this twiner as ખાખરવેલ / Khakhar-vel, suggestive of its trifoliate leaves akin to ખાખરો / Khakhro i.e. Butea monosperma. The Gujarati name વિદારીકંદ / Vidari-kand is indicative of the underground tubers that have to be ripped out of the ground ( વિદારવું ). Yet another Gujarati name of this plant is ફગડાનો વેલો / Phagadano Velo since the new leaves emerge in the month of ફાગણ / Phagan. 
Thank you very much ... for the interesting names of Pueraria tuberosa in Gujarati. Thanks for the additional information. Will incorporate them into my notes post this Asteraceae Part I fortnight.
I am seeking a verification about the name of the scientist in whose honour this genus is named. I ask because I often visit Thailand where we have several kudzus and I have some local literature which credits
the name as M. W. Puerari. I am getting mixed results on the internet, M. W. as well as M. N. Puerari. Thanks in advance for any help in this regard and compliments for your haunting photography.
Thank you very much for pointing out to this confusion of M. N. and M. W. Puerari
To my belief it must be Marc Nicolas Puerari (1765 – 1845), Swiss botanist & professor, who taught at the University of Copenhagen in Denmark, and left his herbarium to a younger compatriot, Alphonse Louis Pierre Pyrame de Candolle (1806-1893) ...other than Dave's Botanary, we find it mentioned in CalfloraAmerican Journal of BotanyFlora of Australia OnlinePlant Lives (PDF) • Forest Invasive Plants Resource Center (PDF).
Swiss botanist M. W. Puerari (1766 – 1845) ... does appear in few results; but no details are found.
If someone helps what the initials M. W. stand for - the search may become interesting.

I think both the records point to the same author. A search for the name 'Puerari' yielded a single record in IPNI and JSTOR as well.
Marc Nicolas Puerari 1766-1845
So the other entry may be an orthographis error.
Much appreciate your help in confirming the initials to be M. N. Puerari. I thought perhaps there were two different scientists called Puerari but it looks like M. W. is a mistake.

Photographed at my farm at Shahapur yesterday. Unfortunately do not have any photographs of it flowering / fruiting. Also, it is not Mucuna pruriens [Common Cowitch / Khaj khujli] which is flowering & fruiting right now.
This could be Spatholobus.
Thank you ... for this lead. This is not Spatholobus parviflora [Butea parviflora] as I have many Butea parviflora climbers on my property, so the only other possibility is Butea superba. Remember Dr. Almeida telling me that B.superba is very rare.
Will have to wait for more inputs or till the plants flower / fruit.
Butea superba Roxb. Pl. Coromandel i. t. 22.-. 1795. Please find the plate (t 22 from Plants of Coromandel) attached to help you in identification.

Thanks ..., but don't think the leaves look anything like this. Will have to try some other lead
Whats the flower colour?
Have only recently noticed this liana so am not aware of the nature of its flowers/ fruit. Will keep a watch and let you know.
P.S. - Also don't think it is the Indian Kudzu [Pueraria tuberosa].
I have not been able to diiferentiate between B. superba and
B. parviflora. How do you tell them apart from leaves? I am yet to see B. superba anywhere in my search over last 12 years. I am anxious to know.
Just received a reply from .... He feels it could possibly be the Indian Kudzu [Pueraria tuberosa]. Will have to check again.
..., quite likely ... is correct, Indian Kudzu is seen near Cec centre, and appears very similar to the pics of your climber.

Is the ID correct ??

Flowers appears to be of Pueraria tuberosa
Leaves are of some other plant.

What is the habit of the plant, I mean shrub or herb.
the flower color is similar but the branched infloresence seems at odds
Seems like some shrubby climbing plant.
and added problem. after all these years people still dont take a couple of more pictures. habit. habitat and some greater details of leaves.

Both lianas or stranglers.
Unfortunately now flowers. Photographed in fruiting season.

Fabaceae for sure. 
Gliricidia sepium
Please show few leaves, habit too. 
Looks different from Gliricidia sepium
Something else.

It looks like fruits of Pureria tuberosa
