Chitra ji According to the Plant List, B. nervifolium Thwaites is synonym of B. sensitivum (L.) DC.
B. reinwardtii (Zucc.) Kl: Leaflets 10-20 pairs, tip rounded,, base equal, lateral nerves slender, oblique; peduncles slender; capsule almost as long as calyx. B. sensitivum: leaflets 6-15 pairs (nearly 12 pairs in var. nervifolium in FBI), usually apiculate, terminal leaflet with oblique base, lateral nerves few slender (strong in var. nervifolium) and wavy, especially in lower part. Perhaps Santosh ji can throw better light on this. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
