This very fine spGicios, es^ily dietiuguished from all the others by its mnch 
larger pods with very pronounced umbonate apex, has been but onoo reported and 
then, unfortunately, without flowers. It is perhaps raost nearly related to D. indum 
from which, however, besides differing as to fruits it is also distinguiehecl by its 
thicker and fewer leaflets. No native name has been giveu for the species.
