This plant approaches so closely in structure to E. indica, Lam., 

 that I think it must be considered a form of that species. The 

 calyx of E. indica is minutely five-toothed at the very tip, while 

 the Christmas Island plant has three, or sometimes five, bluntish 

 callosities. The standard is about 2 ins. long ; the wings and keel 

 are subequal, and ± 1 in. long.
