Seen on the sides of mustard and wheat fields in Bera, Rajasthan, February 2020.
Not sure if it is Orobanche cernua Loefl. var. desertorum C.Beck., Orobanchaceae. There were no tobacco plantations in the area.
Please confirm

Thanks, …, for the wonderful presentation.

Keys in Flora of Pakistan are as below:

+	Scapes less than 1 cm broad; spikes elongated, somewhat lax below		(2)
2 (1)	Calyx lateral segments 2-fid with equal pair of teeth		Orobanche cernua var. cernua
+	Calyx lateral segments 2 fid to entire, often with unequal pair of teeth		Orobanche cernua var. pseudo-clarkei

I am unable to see the calyx properly. Pl. check.

As per Catalogue of life, Orobanche cernua var. nepalensis DC. is a syn. of Orobanche cernua var. desertorum G.Beck with no distribution in India.

However, Catalogue of life gives distribution of Orobanche cernua var. pseudoclarkei S.M.H.Jafri in India.

Attaching a couple of cropped images. To me the calyx teeth seem slightly unequal.
