Abstract

Garcinia talbotii Raizada ex Santapau is often misidentified as G. spicata (Wight & Arn.) Hook.f. in the regional Floras of northern Western Ghats. This paper clearly delimits these two species with unambiguous morphological and anatomical characters to facilitate authentic identification.
