Bean-like Seed... Help to identify...?

Hi... I've just got 3 bean like seeds... less than 2cm tall, around 1cm wide and 0.5cm thick... It is shaped just like a big bean but is thinner... With a shiny black coat and wild white stripes... It is said to have showy flowers... Any suggestion or Scientific names?...


...


Hm... Very close to caster bean... But I'm pretty sure its a Fabaceus plant not an Euphorbiaceus one!... It was not wisteria (those are all black) nor scarlet runner bean (black with pink stripes)...

Bean-like Seed... Help to identify...?
Check the link for various bean seeds ... the skunk bean fits your general description but it is apparently quite rare.





The only other black seed with white stripes that I can think of is the sunflower seed ...
Reply:Hyacinth bean has black and white stripes, but I believe is smaller.
