Is this Crotolaria calycina? 281109MK2 – efloraofindia | Google Groups : 7 posts by 5 authors.
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. .

Nelliyampathy, Kerala 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. 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 worked out, taken from kerala, Munnar to periyar road. 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. efloraindia: 121011 BRS59: Place, Altitude, GPS- Munnar (Kerala) 1800 msl.
Habitat- Urban (along the road side)
Plant Habit- Climber/ Herb-
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. Yes, Crotalaria evolvuloides Benth.
