Many thanks Santhosh ji. Attempted a search on internet for the Indigofera monograph by Dr M Sanjappa, but was not successful in getting it. If anyone can provide it will be very useful.
Satish ji, will recheck my plants with comparing features of other 3 species and revert. Just as Satish ji says, it will be good to have photographs of all four of these: 1. *Indigofera glandulosa* Willd. 2. *Indigofera prostrata* Willd. 3. *Indigofera trifoliata* L. 4. *Indigofera trita* L.f.
