Fabaceae for identification :: Feb2018 MK001 : 9 posts by 4 authors. Attachments (9)

Please help me in identifying this Fabaceae herb. It was found in a fresh fallow land, so I doubt that this could be under cultivation. Could this be an Alysicarpus sp.?

Height: about 1 metre

Date: 28 Nov 2017

Place: Dharwad, Karnataka

Looks like Alysicarpus glumaceus (Vahl) DC

It is Alysicarpus pubescens Law. ex Wight; reasons- hairy herb; standard yellow, flowers in dense silky racemes
it is a rather species

I think that standard petal is yellow in colour in Alysicarpus pubescens

To me it appears more closer to Alysicarpus glumaceus than Alysicarpus pubescens as per images herein

A heyneanus var heyneanus

Alysicarpus ¿ species ?

Not sure whether the aspects seen in two photos help in getting to species ID.

Growing wild in a field, very small plants.

Alysicarpus sp. Could be Alysicarpus longifolius.

… sure about Alysicarpus … not familiar with species.

Alysicarpus sanjappae Shantanu Chavan, M. M. Sardesai, D. S. Pokle ?

A heyneanus

Should I take this as Alysicarpus heyneanus as suggested by …?

He is the expert on this genus.

I found a very similar looking image by … under Alysicarpus longifolius.

Alysicarpus ¿ species ?

The colour combination in flower seems to be strikingly different. Naive questions: Does it tell ID? OR are there many species sharing this colour combination ? Answers to this will help me very much.

at Halabhavi on October 15, 2011

ID of alysicarpus shall need photographs of pods …

Alysicarpus species in eFloraofindia (with details/ keys from published papers/ regional floras/ FRLHT/ FOI/ Biotik/ efloras/ books etc., where ever available on net)

There are other species of the genera Alysicarpus have similar kind of dual coloured flowers. In the images attached, calyx is much longer, since it is difficult to identify species because identification is mainly based on pods.
But, if the pods are rugose and stem is villous then it should be Alysicarpus glumaceus (Vahl) DC. or otherwise Alysicarpus longifolius (Spreng.) Wight & Arn. as flower pedicel are much longer..

Thank you very much … for your thoughts and the possible IDs. Indeed I must get to the pods in future to avoid ambiguities.

To me appears more close to images at Alysicarpus heyneanus Wight & Arn.
