Req for identification of Vicia sp.

[D.S Rawat]

Hello to all members!
Please identify attached Vicia sp. It is a wild tendril climber
reaching up to 5 meters and I collected it at 314m altitude (Tarai
land) in Uttarakhand in September 2012. It is closer to V.bakeri and
V.rigidula but both of these are temperate species growing above 1500m
altitude in the Himalaya.
Regards and BEST WISHES FOR NEW YEAR 2013.

Welcome Dr. Rawat

Both V. bakeri and V. rigidula have distinctly dentate stipules. Here they are clearly sagittate-hastate and entire. V. tenuifolia may be most likely, V. villosa is another one to consider.
