Dear All, Stamens 5, glands absent, leaflets 2 pairs is C. absus, whereas C. uniflora has stamens 7, glands present and leaflets 4-5 pairs. C. absus is a monsoon herb, flowers may have differed due to being out of season. Regards, Shrikant On Oct 11, 9:58 pm, Satish Phadke wrote: > *Cassia absus*

Re: [efloraofindia:90132] Cassia absus

Satish ji The whole problem in this thread is because where there are four leaflets (two pairs) you are counting them as two leaflets, and where they are eight (4 pairs) you count them as 4. I had doubt about this after seeing Giby ji's photographs, but your upload now confirms it. -- Dr. Gurcha
