Perhaps Crotalaria juncea L. - a guess, Ref: Dr. Almeida's flora vol II. Leaves closeups needed.

may be Crotalaria juncea, but the habit makes some confusion. I think C. juncea is an erect plant and in the picture it does not seem to be erect.

You better refer the revision on genus Crotalaria by Dr. A. A. Ansari for the confirmation.

Gargji,

I saw the image posted by Sathishji,

But I think that is not C. juncea. I am attaching a photograph of C. juncea taken from Needle point, Gudallur (TN), identified by Dr. Sibichen Thomas, who has revised Crotalaria of South India for his Ph.D. thesis.

However the first two photographs are similar to C. juncea

with regards

Hi,
Pods give clue for this to be Crotalaria spectabilis?
Thanks
