Nidhan Sir, First i will tell you why it is not *Phaseolus vulgaris* L. In *Phaseolus* corolla morphology is different than *Vigna* or *Dolichos* like regular legume species. please check foc illustration (specially no.2 and 5) - http://www.efloras.org/object_page.aspx?object_id=116327&flora_id=2. Corolla in *Phaseolus* mostly features- 1. standard suborbicular, quite different to other legume genera 2. wings equalling or exceeding standard 3. keel beaked, spiral 4. in *P. v.* calyx teeth is much smaller 5. in *P. v.* flower is subtended by persistent ovate bracteoles The correct species images can be seen at https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/LvvFsri1xzQ/iZVItwPp8VYJ My guess is that you identified your species based on uploads like - - https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/sF4PXYr2UsU/FYltXojWCwAJ Now, I will try to identify your species, featured by regular legume flower, long calyx teeth- 1. please check http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/265239/ (efi also features this species) 2. for varieties check http://www.tropicalforages.info/key/Forages/Media/Html/Macrotyloma_uniflorum.htm 3. though your 2nd pic seems to show cylindrical pod but immature pods are flattened (compressed) as can be seen in 5th pic of https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/sF4PXYr2UsU/FYltXojWCwAJ 4. hint of flattened pod can also be seen in your 1st pic Your species is *Macrotyloma uniflorum* ILam.) Verdc. Thank you Regards On 30 October 2015 at 00:04, surajit koley <[email protected]> wrote: > I don't think it is *Phaseolus vulgaris* L.
