Lateral leaflets much smaller than terminal, if flower about 12 mm long or so, then it should be Desmodium gyrans Thank you sir, I think you have pointed me in the right direction.. (I think.. please review) The flower much smaller than this... it is 4mm wide and 4mm long.. I think the description of D. podocarpum on FloraSimlensis would be fitting this... P.S. A few links from the internet http://www.botanic.jp/plants-ya/yabuha.htm Yes I think it is D. podocarpum. Now I think you can appreciate how vital information about size helps.

Habit: Herb. Habitat: Along roadsides Date: August 2010 - The shape of articles reminds me of Desmodium zonatum. But few other spp (like D. repandum etc.) also have this feature.
