This is Crotalaria filipes or C. filipes var panthaki Looks very close to C. hebecarpa but r/o because raceme is long is 2-3 flowered.
To be fair to Mahadeshwara ji, bracts of C. prostrata cannot be seen at this distance, you need close up photo's as the bracts are small and a lateral view of the flower. Practically, however I can say that habit is not of C. prostrata but C. filipes and quite honestly it's variation 'panthaki'. For C. prostrata images please see below link of the species posted by me this fortnight. https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/Hyyl_yaQfCg/Ot7DR1y4CgAJ Regards, Samir Mehta On Tue, Oct 27, 2015 at 1:51 PM, J.M.
