Seeds ovate, spherical to ovate-elongate, 1-1.5 × 1 mm, slightly compressed.</p><p>Flowering &amp; fruiting: Flowering from September to November and fruiting from October to January.</p><p>Habitat: Common in open grasslands in association with Aeschynomene aspera L., Alysicarpus bupleurifolius (L.) DC., A. naikianus Pokle, A. tetragonolobus, A. vaginalis (L.) DC., Mimosa pudica L. (all Fabaceae), Alternanthera tenella Colla ( Amaranthaceae), Dichanthium annulatum (Forssk.) Stapf. and Eragrostis unioloides (Retz.) Nees (both Poaceae).</p><p>Etymology: The variety epithet ‘micranthus’ refers to the character of the flowers, which in the variety are very small and included in the calyx (micro= small, anthus= flower).</p><p>Distribution: Endemic to India.</p><p>Conservation status: This variety is only reported from its type locality and is uncommon in open grasslands. Since data on population and distribution is not available, it is provisionally assessed here as Data Deficient (DD) (IUCN, 2019).</p><p>Notes: It was observed that all flowers produced pods and it is suspected that the variety is adapted to self-pollination breeding, which, however, needs further detailed investigations.</p><p>Key to the varieties of Alysicarpus tetragonolobus</p><p>1.
