Satish ji Pinnae are the divisions of first order which I count 5 pairs in most leaves; leaflets (pinnules) i can count 9-10 pairs in each pinna
Mimosa hamata has 3-6 pairs of pinnae and 6-10 pairs of leaflets Mimosa rubicaulis ssp. himalayana has 5-12 pairs of pinnae and 6-15 pairs of leaflets I think there should be no doubt now.
