i am pleased to share one of the rare sighting of a climber with full bloom
Name: Atylosia volubilis
Family: Fabaceae
Place of collectiion: Ranpur, Nayagarh, Odisha
Habit: Climber

Habitat: Wild in scrub forests.


I too have never seen this beautiful flower. Would you please upload the picture of whole plant.


sorry for delayed query, are you sure this plat is Atylosia voluvilis?

to me it looks like Paracalyx scabrus, but I have not seen Atylosia voluvilis in flowering stage, so just I want to clarify my doubt.


Yes … This is A. volubilis. I have also matched this with herbarium specimens deposited in two herbaria of Odisha.


Paracalyx scariosus as per images herein & not Cajanus crassus (King) Maesen (syn. Atylosia volubilis) as per images herein.

Shrub ID request – RK101 – 11-Feb-2013:  Requesting identification of this shrub seen at Chinchoti. The leaves are trifoliate and it is flowering now. I think it belongs to Flemingia genus but not sure of species. The flowers are yellow.


This is Ran-ghevda [Paracalyx scariosus].


Agree with … Paracalyx scariosus (Roxb.) Ali is quite possible.

… Clarify once again whether it was a Shrub or a Climber .


Thanks a lot … and … It looked like a shrubby plant and is about 2 feet tall at the most.
