DR. F. MUELLER ON AUSTRALIAN ACACIZ. 137 
/8. ACACIA DREPANOCARPA, n. sp. Erecta, glabra, ramulis superne 
angulatis, phyllodiis brevissime petiolatis elongato-linearibus subrectis 
basi et apice longe angustatis hinc apiculatis supra basin glanduligeris 
uni- trinerviis erebre parallelo-venosis, spicis axillaribus solitariis 
brevissime pedunculatis, leguminibus lignescentibus complanatis sub- 
falcatis intus oblique septatis margine planis integerrimis apice obtusis 
basi longe acutatis. 
In rupibus plage austro-occidentalis sinus Carpentarie, No. 27. 
Frutex. Phyllodia iis A. julifere et delibrate simillima, sed glandula a 
basi paulo remota. Rachis cylindracea circiter sesquipollicaris. Flores 
desunt. Legumina iis A. loxocarpe, oncinocarpe et aulacocarpe 
similia, 14-3” longa raro recta, margine (statu saltem immaturo) sub- 
canaliculato-plana, extus oblique et fere parallelo-venosa. 
4. loxocarpe propinqua. , 
[Closely allied to 4. avida Benth., and only appears to differ, as far 
as the specimens indicate, in the much narrower pods; but these are far 
from ripe in Dr. Mueller’s specimen, and the only one on Cunningham’s 
specimen is quite ripe and open.—G. B.] 
79. ACACIA LYSIPHLOIA, n. sp. Subglabra, viscidula, ramulis angu- 
latis, phyllodiis sessilibus (fere uncialibus) oblongis leviter curvatis 
cuspidatis 1-3-nerviis obscure parallelo-venosis creberrime punctulatis 
vix glanduligeris, stipulis e lata basi lanceolato-subulatis diu persis- 
tentibus, spicis brevibus axillaribus solitariis breviuscule pedunculatis 
densifloris cylindricis, sepalis angustis glabris corolla 5-partita triplo 
brevioribus. 
Sturt's Creek, No. 84; Hooker's Creek, No. 86. In arenosis plani- 
tierum et vallium sinus Gulf of Carpentaria, e. g. ad ortum fluvii - 
Limmen et Bight River, No. 3. 
Arbuscula, coma planiuscula dilatata. Cortex exterior tenuis castaneo- 
fuscus in frustulis revolutis secedeus. Phyllodia 3-1" longa, 1-17" 
lata. Spice uncia sepe breviores. Legumina ignota. 
A. ptychophylle approximanda. 
[Very near A. linarioides, Benth. The phyllodia are rather shorter and 
thicker and sometimes rather broader. The flowering spikes are closer 
and shorter, but they are younger ; in the specimen No. 84, where they 
are more developed, they are nearly as long as in 4. linarioides. If the 
pod (which is unknown) should not prove different, it must be considered 
as а mere shortened variety of А. linarioides.—G. B.]
