Indigofera sp from Satpura NSD 9 : 11 posts by 6 authors. Attachments (2)

seen today in Satpura Tiger Reserve

i think this shrub is Indigofera sp

but not difficulty in finding sp.
please help in id

If you refer Dr. Sanjappa’s book (Fascicle No. 21, BSI), you can id the species without any difficulty.
This could be Indigofera trita (pl. check for variety).

Indigofera prostrata Willd.

I do not know what this species can be, but it cannot be I. prostrata Willd. since petiolules are much longer, specially the terminal one which is sessile in I. trifoliata L. (ref. Prain). However, though earlier literature state(s) I. prostrata Willd. is synonymous with I. trifoliata L. those two are different taxa now and difference can be seen in – http://www.ehsst.org/34%20Pandey_Indigo_Final.pdf

It may be Indigofera trita var. trita (large leaflet form) as per the Fascicle-21 of Flora of India. Rest of the varieties in this species either have racemes longer than leaves or have 5-7 foliate leaves.

Spelling mistake in Species page- Indigofera trita : 2 posts by 2 authors.
There is spelling mistake in Indigofera tirta. The correct spelling should be Indigofera trita

var. trita or var. subulata ?

Endemic, in Surat Gujarat.

Recorded on 02 10 2019.

Roadside, wasteland, vacant plots.

Perennial …….even in intense summers of may-June it keeps flowering, fruiting.

With rains rejuvenates.

Any keys? Thanks, …, for the wonderful presentation.

I got confused between efi and some facebook interactions. That is why I had to post it.

I guess it is correct ID !

Indigofera trita L.f.

Key available in link above .

Indigofera trita var. trita will have trifoliate leaf, raceme 8 to 12 flowered, pods straight.

var. subulata has 5 foliate leaf, 20 to 40 flowered raceme, pods slightly curved upwards.

With the key in link above, Flora of Karnataka, I foresee a revision of Indigofera trita subpages.
My specimen stands as Indigofera trita var. trita.

In FOI, Indigofera trita entry has I. glandulosa image, I. glandulosa entry has I. trifoliata image, I. trifoliata entry has images by …, are correct. I. trita var. marginulata is very new to me .

Thanks …, The three species have been corrected on FOI.

Thanks … I will have to check what I have labelled in my collection. Will do so after 21st.

Tiny Plant for ID : Nasik : 18JAN21 : AK-17: 2 images.
A very tiny plant.
Looks to be Indigofera Species.

Indigofera trita

I’m getting confused between Indigofera glandulosa, trifoliata and trita.

I have posted similar plants from Nasik before.

Also Indigofera trita on Flowersofindia looks different from my pictures above.
flowersofindia

1. Leaves with glands……………….. glandulosa

1. Leaves without glands……………………2

2. Leaves glabrous above, pubescenct below….. trifoliata

2. Leaves appressed pubescent both surfaces or verrucose… trita
It may help you ma’am,

Thanks for the tips in differentiating the different Species.
Hope I’m able to understand these differences.
