blue seeds

Margaritaria nobilis (Phyllantaceae)

Description:

Semillas azules encontradas en el sendero

Notes:

Muy atractivas por su color azul, lo malo es que al secarse se pierde la coloración. Thakns for your help. I know what seeds are now.

Roberto the seeds itself were clue for me. I like to eat Aamla Fruits (Phyllanthus emblica) many times and reminded their seeds. So I was sure with family Phyllanthaceae. So next it was easy to find exact specie. :)
