Ficus Species For ID : Ficus tinctoria? : Lalbagh,Bangalore : 27JAN17 : AK-12 : 15 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (4) Ficus tree seen in Lalbagh in the first week of Jan. Couldn't find any fruits. Is this Ficus tinctoria? Experts, kindly validate. It looks like Ficus retusa syn, Ficus microcarpa Thanks ... I was going by the link.... And ... link from Bangalore.... Figs Of Bangalore - RA - Ficus tinctoria - Dye Fig Tree your posted plant is not Ficus tinctoria, Ficus microcarpa & Ficus retusa L. (Catalogue of Life) appears to be two different accepted names Ficus microcarpa L.f. In biotik.org F. retusa L. is given as a synonym of F. microcarpa L.f. If we read King, Talbot, Cooke as well as any number of older Floras this tree is known as Ficus retusa. In some more modern sources it becomes F. microcarpa. It is clear from descriptions that they refer to one and the same species.Can you explain the differences between the 2 which have led to a change in the name? Ficus retusa var. pisifera (Miq.) Miq. is given as a syn. of Ficus microcarpa L. fil. as per Catalogue of Life Yes, all this is available online. This is something based on nomenclature principles; Principle III : Priority Principle [ICBN] If a taxonomic group has been given two or more names, the correct name is the first name that meets the Code’s standards for publication. Basically, this means that the priority of a name dates from the time that it was first published and made known to other botanists. e.g. in Ficus microcarpa Ficus microcarpa L.f. [1782] Ficus retusa var. pisifera (Miq.) Miq. [1867] Ficus retusa f. parvifolia Miq. [1867] Ficus retusa var. nitida King [1887] Ficus retusa var. crassifolia W.C.Shieh [1963] So, there are 5 different names for one species, if an author describes or reports a species with other name, submitted herbarium samples later studied and validated at Authorised Herbariums (viz. KEW, NYBG etc.) and later based on code's standards and sample authenticity new names or synonymy decided. Whereas, Ficus microcarpa L.f. and Ficus retusa L. both are distinct species [according to TPL]. According to Chaudhary et. al, It is said that F. retusa L. is a native of Java and does not occur in India (database of Grin, Tropicos, eFloras and Berg and Corner (2005)). The Indian materials are referred to F. microcarpa L. f. (Rao, 1986). However, after examining F. microcarpa L. f. and its allied taxa it has been felt that the Indian materials need to be re-examined from throughout their range of distribution to know the correct identity and occurrence of F. retusa L. in India.

Request for ID... Photographed at Yeralwadi येरळवाडी, Dist. Satara सातारा, Maharashtra. Date- 06th January 2010. ..A species of Ficus again... .. But lacking the fig characters... Looks like Ficus mysorensis to me, but the back of leaves in your pics is not as pubescent perhaps because they seem to be new young leaves. Will post Pics for comparison separately. Without figs but from leaves and short arial roots it can be F. amplissima Looks much closer to F. microcarpa than F. mysorensis to me. Do we know the leaf dimensions? Yes I also agree it looks much closer to F. microcarpa. The short roots hanging from branches and about 2 inches leaf petioles besides the shape matches more with F. microcarpa. Last Sunday saw what I think is F. microcarpa at Sagar upvan in Mumbai which also matches with this tree. Thanks a lot ... ...so I am locking it as 'Ficus microcarpa' Ficus microcarpa L.f.
Please helps me to identify this ficus species as attached here. may be Ficus microcarpa ?????? Ficus microcarpa L.f.Thanks ... for your reply But as per my observation, there is more similarity for F. obliqua. needs experts comments ok let us wait for further ids Dye Fig is a climbing strangler, forming a tree with prop-roots, to 25m. Alternately arrange leaves, to 18x9 cm, are oval, glossy dark green above, pale green below, and have rounded tip and base. Leaves are often asymmetrial. Stalks are thick, to 1.5 cm. Fruit is a fig, appearing in leaf axils, usually paired, round, to 1.5 cm, ripening through orange to red or purple. The fruit of dye fig are the source of a red dye used in traditional fabric making in parts of Indonesia.
It appears to be Ficus retusa This should be Ficus microcarpa L.f.
Another set of old pictures, found while going through some folders. Seen in a cultivated garden in Muscat. Pictures taken in the month of January. Ficus microcarpa OR Ficus panda The photographs are temporarly identified as Ficus microcarpa cultivar 'panda' This should be Ficus microcarpa L.f., there is no species F. panda.
Request for ID : 050111 : AK-2: 1 image. Taken at Muscat, Sultanate of Oman in one of the gardens on the 12th of November, 2010. A garden plant in the form of a small bush. This could be Ficus jacquinifolia Ficus jacquinifolia For the above link please go through reconsideration for species for me this is not Ficus americana, this should be a cultivated variety of Ficus microcarpa L.f. (Green Island Fig - Variety) a popular bonsai fig variety in South East Asia and now in India. Thanks .... I think you are right. Although to me it looks more like Ficus microcarpa var. fuyuensis. I have seen it at Jijamata Udyan in Mumbai too, in their Plant Nursery.

This should be Ficus microcarpa
Attachments (5) I think look close to images at Ficus microcarpa Yes, Ficus microcarpa ;F.amplissima leaf is different, it lacks aerial roots This should be Ficus microcarpa (variety and garden name - Green Island Fig)
Ficus Id from Bangladesh_SM_1400 : 13 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (3) Habitat: Along the river (freshwater) Local name: Bot/ Jeen Any chance of it beind Ficus concinna or is sub spp? Could be Ficus concinna. I never seen it before, however in Bangladesh it (if Ficus concinna) has not been reported more than 100 years. However, I have found 2 big and one small tree of this species and observed epiphytic characteristics. Please fine more image. 6 images. Request you to kindly check for these specific characters which should be present in Ficus concinna var.subsillis (that is found in Meghalaya); can see a few of these characters in the photographs but others need to be chkd in the specimen : 1. Leaves alternate - True 2. Leaves entire - True 3. Leaves narrowed, cuneate at base - not properly visible 4. Leaves 3-7 nerved at base - not properly visible 5. Stipules 6-10 cm long - not properly visible 6. Receptacle sessile - kndly verify from specimen 7. Receptacle not enclosed in calyptrate involucre - not properly visible 8. Receptacles black when ripe - not properly visible Thank for your very significant remarks. I will check it out while conducting next field. I think we are getting closer. However, since I am not very closely familiar with the spp, I would have to rely on the spp characters mentioned in the literature. Request you to kindly get a sample of the specimen, take close up photos of all structures. This would be very good when the spp is flowering/ fruiting. Also you may cut the fls / frt and photograph those. Check for the ripe fruit characters as well. If it has not been collected in the last 100 yrs, you may think of getting it published!! The photographs are near to Ficus microcarpa L.f. which shows parallel venation of leaves, sessile small figs and produce numerous aerial roots. Some times these aerial roots become trunks like Ficus benghalensis. Need to be verified physically. Ficus tinctoria subsp. gibbosa in FOI : 5 posts by 3 authors. It is a small to medium sized tree, some here and there available. mostly it will grow with some other tree or on rock. Ficus microcarpa is a big tree and leaves and figs are smaller. efi threadI had already sent an email almost two years back for correction, FOI team had accidentally forgotten to correct. This is Ficus microcarpa just seen last week at Lalbagh in Ficus section. Sorry ...! Indeed your correction was not attended to. It was sent in May 2017. :-) Without good closeup of leaves and fruits, the existing pictures anyway do not convey much. So I guess they should be removed. Ficus microcarpa is anyway represented at FOI. Thanks to all for investing their time in examining this.

Matheran Ficus : 5 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (6) Please find attached picture of some Ficus. Location: Matheran Date: Mid December 2018 Leaves: Petiolate, Ovate. Apex is cuspidate, curved towards underside for leaf. Leaf base is roundish. Leaves has waxy coating which shine in sun with good reflexion. Leaves look are bit thick, leathery. Phyllotaxy: Alternate, spiral. Fruits: Two or one fruits are seen at auxiliary position of leaves. On ripening one fruit was yellowish. Adventitious roots: Like all ficus tree, trunk has prop roots. Thanks, ..., Pl. check comparative images at Ficus This should be Ficus microcarpa don't you need leaf dimensions? Thanks ... Compared the link Ficus you given, but, at time, could not conclude it as Ficus microcarpa, because attached pictures does not have such bright red leaves as in our Ficus link. If looked carefully at attached DSCN7255_Scaled_CR.jpg, it seems red color still left into the leaves. It seems, young leaves were red and now they turned green. As per info in few books, red colors are due to pigments to repel insects from foraging on leaves. And in December, there are no much insects available in nature. May be reason leaves are not very brightly coloured. Please correct if going wrong. Leaf shape, venation, apex, petiole, leaf base exactly match with our Ficus link. Fruits are arising from auxiliary position of leaves in attached pictures and in our Ficus link. So Ficus microcarpa is matching with attached pictures.
