POST resurfaced for seeking ID *Earlier relevant feedback*:
May be *Corydalis cornuta* Please show a close up with spur in view. Dr. Gurcharan Singh *Corydalis govaniana* by any chance? Pankaj *Here are the differences* *C. cornuta* *C. govaniana* Plant procumbent with long strangling branches Plant erect Flowers yellow with dark tips, 1.2-2 cm long Flowers yellow without dark tips, 2.5 cm long Spur almost as long as posterior petal Spur half as long as posterior petal capsule oblong obovate, 10-12 mm long Capsule oblong, 10-15 mm long With more close ups perhaps this may be resolved. Dr. Gurcharan Singh The best I can do sir... (*Ritesh ji added an attachment*) Ritesh I think I will go with *C. cornuta*, the spur seems pretty long in one or more flowers where it is visible. The tips of leaf segments are more or less pointed in this species, not so in *C. govaniana* in which also the stem leaves are not more than two. Dr. Gurcharan Singh *Validation required to conclude the ID*. Regards.
