I was wondering about the pods … perhaps, here they are juvenile and are yet to assume the typical rattlepod like form. Frankly I am not convinced about both. The leaflets are oblanceolate with rounded apex in Crotalaria cytisoides (now correctly known as C. tanety), here they are elliptic-lanceolate with clearly acute apex. This is Crotalaria cytosoides, I have already sent the photos of Piptanthes nepalensis. The crotalaria cytisoides is plant of eastern Himalaya where it is planted as fodder. So variation of leaves may be occured. It is previosly reported by Dr. H. B. Naithani from Chakrata. and it may be planted in chile too. The calyx is silky hairy in P.nepalensis and petioles is short as compared to Crotalaria cytosiodes. .
