Canavalia species in eFloraofindia (with details/ keys from published papers/ regional floras/ FRLHT/ FOI/ Biotik/ efloras/ books etc., where ever available on net) check C gladiata I could not find any keys for Indian species on net except at Flora of China.
I could not find any keys for Indian species on net except at Flora of China. To me it appears to be closer to Canavalia cathartica Thouars as per keys & illustration at FOC.
Canavalia gladiata from Tirupati: wild or escape as well as cultivated This vine also common there. I also saw this first time there only I could not find any keys for Indian species on net except at Flora of China.
Canavalia lineata (Sagar-abai/ Bay bean ) : 3 posts by 1 author. On 8/11/08 in Kawal Wildlife Sanctuary, AP. I hope the Id is correct. Links of Canavalia lineata: http://flickr.com/photos/xissey/2438561385/ (a picture), http://flickr.com/photos/Benrose/2255577027 (a picture), http://www.flickr.com/photos/xissey/2433310633/ (a picture) I could not find any keys for Indian species on net except at Flora of China. These take me to Canavalia cathartica Thouars for your species. This was growing in a kitchen garden, a cultivated species. I am not sure if it can be Canavalia ensiformis (L.) DC or C. gladiata (Jacq.) DC. Photographed on 28-Sept-2012. Sir Prain listed four species in 'Bengal Plants' of which one is cultivated - C. ensiformis. But the problem is He also gives Dolichos gladiatus of 'FLora Indica' as its synonym. Haines' views is same. So, please help..... Canavalia gladiata (Jacq.) DC. is the edible one, C. ensiformis flowers will be with more bluish tinge. Thank you very much ... for the id and differentiating characters. I could not find any keys for Indian species on net except at Flora of China. To me it appears to be closer to Canavalia cathartica Thouars as per keys & illustration at FOC. It is reported in Flora of Tamilnadu, it is edible and often cultivated in villages near farm huts. But FOC did not give corolla as white in Canavalia cathartica Thouars Thanks for the updates.
