Leaflets as in A. sceptrum-aureum, sometimes slightly incurved. Bract 1.5-3.5 mm long; bracteoles 1-3 mm long. Pedicel and calyx with long, woolly pubescence; calyx lobes narrowly triangular (not ovate), 2-5 mm long, mucronate-acuminate or partly glabrous. Petals bright yellow. Standard blade ±10-12.5 x 11.5-14.5 mm, sericeous(-lanate) on the back (marginally glabrous), glabrous on the front except on the base; an apical tip may or may not be present. Wing blades 9-11.5 x 4.5-6.5 mm, glabrous. Keel blades lunate to somewhat rostrate, hardly to considerably beaked, 7.7-8.7 x 4.2-4.8 mm, glabrous. Pistil: ovary long-woolly; ovules 2; style glabrous. Pod broadly lanceolate, 12-13.5 x ±5 mm, with long-woolly pubescence.
