Yes, these two species (C.tetragona and C.juncea) are similar. These are differentiated by Duthie in Flora of Upper Gangetic Plains as: Branches angular, pods brown, velvety....................................... C.tetragona Branches, sulcate, pods clothed with persistent silky hairs........... C.juncea C.juncea is a cultivated species in hills while C.tetragona is completely wild. However, C.tetragona is not known westward to Uttarakhand as mentioned by Sanjappa (1992).Another pont is that both of these species are not known in temperate Himalaya (species was recorded by Nidhan Ji near Simla, HP).
