For a long time I have assumed it to be the Virginia Creeper but while looking at a sample I collected today, I had my doubts. I looked around and found that the vine here could be Vitis capreolata (p.94, Col. Collett Flora Simlensis) which is a synonym of the accepted name Tetrastigma serrulatum. I could not find either illustrations or photos for this species which is strange as it is very common vine around here, but I did find Kew sample and another collection here; The sample in the second link is collected from Mcleodganj only so if that ID is correct, we have a good indicator. My earlier ID Parthenocissus quinquefolia seems incorrect and is not mentioned in any of the local flora books I have. Please advise.

This does not "ring any bells" as to possible identity. As mentioned previously my familiarity with sub-tropical flora in Nepal is strictly limited - I recognise a few things but often not.

The two seem to be similar.I am not sure. Hence, unable to confirm. I guess T. serrulatum have dark purple fruit when ripe. I have not seen fruit color as in the images for this sp. I will go with Tetrastigma serrulatum as per keys in Online flora of Nepal, with these images. Only confusion is fruit colors !
