About 7 species in the tropics of the Old World. P. indicum, A. Rich. (Caesalpinia lacerans, Roxbg.). Branches slender, finely downy and with minute prickles: lvs. alternate with 8-16 pinnae, 12-16 lfts., pale green: racemes copiously panicled at the end of the branches; calyx with the lowest sepal longest; corolla yellow, not showy.
