Apologies Garg ji, I did not explicitly mention that it is planted. I just wrote "... at a resort in Vythiri, Wayanad" at the top of series of posts. In that series, I have uploaded photos of garden flora - planted in their premises as ornamental foliage or flowering plants.
I agree about ILDIS being best resource on Fabaceae. We cannot however emphasize on having their content related to distribution being up to date. I surfed through various good websites to read through Pinto peanut. I gathered it is being cultivated widely in tropics as forage. Since it is said to be cultivated, it would be some or other cultivar, and not what is exactly growing wild in its native region. Here are two sites: 1. Tropical Forages <http://www.tropicalforages.info/key/forages/Media/Html/entities/arachis_pintoi.htm> 2. Flowers of India <https://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Pinto%20Peanut.html> (we all follow) It is introduced (cultivated) in Australia for sure. It is quite possible, ILDIS are yet to update their records related to this species. Regards. Dinesh On Sat, Dec 14, 2019 at 1:10 PM J.M.
