This is Casearia ovata [C.esculenta] locally called Kirmira / Kulkulta. Please check the archives of this group for my photographs of this. A few of my photographs of this are available at these links isn't this more likely to be C. graveolens ?. I also looked at your pics and I have a doubt. In Shahapur area I feel C. graveolens is the commoner species of the 2. Please enlighten me! Good question ! Had me foxed for awhile. Checked Dr. Almeida's ' Flora of Maharashtra'. The main difference between the 2 being - while the stipules in C.ovata are minute, scale-like; in C. graveolens they are long, lanceolate-subulate. Spoke to Dr. Almeida. According to him the current trend in veering towards considering both the same. yes, and the other difference according to some sources is the leaf margins. C. graveolens is described as having crenate leaf margins, whereas C. ovata according to some sources has entire leaves. The pics posted here show crenate leaves. See also the Biotik website which shows C. ovata (esculenta) with closeups of the leaves. They are quite different. Fair enough, but the leaf-margin as a differentiating characteristic is not mentioned in any of the standard reference books. [In fact, for example in Olea dioica, while most have leaves with serrate margins there are some which have leaves with entire margins]. Yes, that's true. But as we only have limited clues to go on, as in these photos, we have to go with whatever we can! need id of following attachments.

Please check this link Casearia sps for sure In the Salicaceae (including Flacourtiaceae) fortnight, ID has tended towards Casearia graveolens instead of C. ovata... Resurfacing the post for the mail trail above.. I am a bit confused now... the 2 species are quite similar but once you see the leaves of the 2 side by side you will see the difference. IN some images which only show the fruit it is very difficult to say which is which. If you look at the habitat of the Silonda trail you will see it is typical moist deciduous and that is a big clue. C. graveolens is very common in these kinds of forests whereas C. ovata is restricted to everygreen forest understorey. The other clue is fruiting time. Your pics were taken in June so it is certainly not C. ovata which flowers end of June to early August and fruits in September - October. Thanks ... for clearing detailing the differences...

This link (I won't bet my money on its relaibility) http://www.ayushveda.com/herbs/casearia-esculenta.htm says that the fruits are spherical and red in color when ripe. On the other hand, Casearia graveolens is descibed at Flora of China site as having "Capsule orange-yellow when ripe, dark reddish or blackish brown and strongly longitudinally ribbed when dried, ellipsoid-oblong, ca. 2 cm, fleshy..." Any comments on this? Have a look at this link of "flora of eastern Ghats". It talks about both the species i.e Casearia eaculenta as well as C.graveolens. It indicates that for C.graveolens, the capsule is ellipsoid / sub-globuse where as for C. esculenta it mentions as only ellipsoid, orange as earlier indicated by .... Thanks for for the book reference, something I was desperately looking for. It was a sight for sore eyes! Looking at this, I feel that your plant is probably Casearia graveolens. Casearia graveolens is supposed to have broadly elliptic leaves and yellow ellipsoid fruit, which agrees with your picture. Casearia esculenta is supposed to have narrowly elliptic-lance shaped leaves and ellipsoid orange fruit. Both of these feature don't agree well with your picture. I would like others to present their opinion on this. I think u r right. Further flowers of Sahyadri by … also talks of C.graveolens with capsules 2-3cm, ellipsoid, smooth, 3 valved, yellow; seeds with scarlet aril. ... and I depended on … confidence and these two: I was not able to verify the ID of http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Saptrangi.html properly. This book describes the flowers of Casearia esculenta as yellowish and those of Casearia graveolens as pale green. Now the flowers in the FOI link do look pale green to me. Me still confused. Maybe it is the confusion of synonyms... looks very much like Casearia graveolens, infact this species is very common in areas where the picture is taken.
