Please help to identify this Crotolaria sp. Found in open areas of dry deciduous forests in eastern ghats.
Place: Satyamnagalam hills
Alt: 900 msl
Date: Oct 2008

I don’t really think so….the FOI link says that the said plant is hairy..just check it
flowersofindia

Yes sir, this one is different.


Also in C. calycina, calyx is longer than pod, here it is less than half as long. May be if some one gives a list of species reported from Eastern Ghats, this species can be identified. Features are very clear from photgraphs, but I find it difficult to look up the key of 77 species from FBI


pl check for Crotalaria prostrata, just a wild guess


I think it is Crotalaria evolvuloides. In C. prostrata the pods are glabrous. And it is not C. calycina for sure. According to Gamble, the leaves of C. evolvuloides are very variable, from oblong, lanceolate to even orbicular.

I think this could be Crotalaria evolvuloides of Leguminosae family


The pattern of leaves really reminds me about the plant Evolvulus alsinoides which might be responsible for this name …. ?


Yes I too think as what you suggested.
Any way, salute to the people who had named the with an apt term.

Flowers appear to be pale yellow. If this flowering is in December then it should be Crotalaria labunifolia. Confirmation required.


The images are of Crotalaria prostrata.


image -0208 clearly shows stipules therefore this this is unlikely to be C. prostrata.
Definitely Crotalaria sp.
Will post images of what I feel is C. prostrata shortly. Will appreciate your comments.


efi page on Crotalaria prostrata & Crotalaria laburnifolia 


The specimen looks like Crotalaria humifusa.


Thank you very much …  Could it be C. evolvuloides? Not sure about C. humifusa.


I think you are right, … It matches with images at Crotalaria evolvuloides


All photographs belongs to Crotalaria evolvuloides

Crotalaria evolvuloides


Is it Crotalaria evolvuloides or Crotalaria prostrata ?


Does not seem to match with images of Crotalaria prostrata


It looks more like Crotalaria evolvuloides to me.

This is Crotalaria species. More views of leaves and fruits (if possible no. of seeds) will help to id it. It may be C. evolvuloides (?)


Perhaps fruits will help as Crotalaria evolvuloides has hairy fruits.
Leaves on the lower branch certainly does not seem to be C. evolvuloides.


Yes, Crotalaria evolvuloides Benth.
