This differs from D. bholua in having the leaves bluntly acute (not acuminate), flowers white, not fragrant, and red fruits. Also the floral bud-scales are persistent, whereas in D. bholua they fall as the flower-buds open.
This species has a more western distribution than D. bholua, from around the Indus eastward to Nepal, whereas D. bholua ranges from Nepal eastward to Assam. Where the two species meet in Nepal is not certain.
