Some how I am not convinced with Senna auriculata 1. stipules are generally so prominent in that it can't be missed 2. The species has 6-13 pairs of leaflets, but here I can't count more than six in any leaf, 4, 5 or 6 pairs are seen in many 3. Glands can be seen even in some upper pairs and they appear sessile 4. fruit has not more than 8 seeds, whereas they should be 20-35 in that species.
