Rhynchosia (Greek, beak, alluding to the shape of the keel). Leguminosae. Twining, prostrate, or rarely erect herbs, shrubs, or subshrubs, suitable for the warmhouse or outdoors in the southernmost parts of the United States.
Plants often glanduliferous, with minute yellow glands: lvs. pinnately, or rarely subdigitately, 3- divided: fls. yellow, mostly in axillary racemes; calyx unequally 3-cleft or 4-5-parted; standard rounded, often darkly lined, rarely purple: legume compressed continuous.—About 100 species in the warmer regions of both hemispheres. The name Dolicholus is sometimes used for this genus, but Rhynchosia is one of the names maintained by the "nomina conservanda" accepted by the Vienna Congress.
