Description

Genus Oxytropis

Herbs or undershrubs. Leaf imparipinnate , leaflets entire, stipels absent; stipules adnate to the petiole or free . Inflorescence an axillary raceme or spike. Bracts often small. Bracteoles minute or absent. Calyx gamosepalous , teeth sub-equal. Vexillum ovate or oblong . Keel mucronate . Stamens diadelphous , 9+1, vexillary stamen free. Ovary sessile or stipitate , style straight or more often curved , not barbate , stigma terminal . Fruit turgid , the seed bearing suture generally intruded, partly dividing the fruit. Seeds reniform , without strophiole.

About 300 species, distributed in Europe, Asia and N. America; locally represented by 21 species. It is taxonomically a difficult genus; the species are not always clearly definable. On the other hand, lumping of various variants will result in a very heterogeneous assemblage . Experimental work is likely to be useful in understanding the basis of variation .[1]
