Not sure whether the aspects seen in two photos help in getting to species ID.
at Tungareshwar Wildlife Sanctuary on September 24, 2011 Does look like one, sir. but a point in the fabaceae key states that “Glumaceous calyx, twice the pedicel length or more” this is not true in the photograph….as against” Calyx not glumaceous, less than half of pedicel length” which seems to be true in this photograph will indicate that this is a Desmodium spp. Looks like Alysicarpus longifolius.
