axillaribus solitariis geminis ternisve raro subpaniculatis tenuiter 
cylindraceis phyllodio multo brevioribus, pedunculo perbrevi pubes- 
cente, calyce profunde partito velutino corolla dimidio breviore, 
leguminibus subcylindraceis torulosis coriaceis arcuatis v. leniter 
curvatis fuscescentibus intus subcontinuis, seminibus nigrescentibus 
lucentibus ovatis leniter compressis utrinque conspicue areolatis stro- 
phiolo fulvido plicato pluries longioribus. 
In locis rupestribus ad flumen Victoriz, ad promontorium Point Pearce, 
No.100. Ad rivum Sturt's Creek, No. 99. 
Phyllodia 3-5" longa, 8-12" lata. Spice circiter uncjales lete lutex. 
Flores parvi. Legumina breviter stipitata, 11—21" longa, circiter 3'” 
lata, intus septis membranaceis imperfectis oblique pereursa. Semina 
circiter 2" longa, areola fuscescente. 
А. Cunninghami et quoad legumina A. acradenie affinis. 
[The anastomosing of the smaller veins can scarcely be seen without 
the help of a glass; and it is not so frequent in the broad-leaved as in 
the narrow-leaved specimens.—G. B.) 
103. ACACIA STIPULIGERA, n. sp.  Pubescens, ramulis teretibus, 
phyllodiis breviusculis oblique lanceolatis leviter curvatis sessilibus 
cuspidato-apiculatis prominenter bi- v. trinerviis creberrime anasto- 
mosanti-venosis sppra basin glanduligeris, stipulis scariosis deltoideis 
persistentibus, spicis axillaribus geminis breviter pedunculatis dense 
cylindraceis, bracteolis lanceolatis unguiculatis acuminatis. . .. .. 
Sandstone table-land with scrub at the head of the Victoria River, of 
Hooker’s Creek, and Sturt's Creek. 
Frutex 5-8'.  Phyllodia 1-14" longa, 3-8'"' lata, tenuiter venosa. 
Stipule fusce circiter 1" metientes. Pedunculi albo-velutini. Nec 
flores evolutos nec fructus vidi. 
Species probabiliter cum 4. retinervi concatenata. 
[Appears to be a distinct species; but the specimen is very imper- 
fect.— С. В.) 
§ 11. Dimidiate. 
104. Acacia latescens, Benth. in Hook. Lond. Journ. of Bot. i. p. 380. 
y. grandifolia (var. dubia) glabra phyllodiis chartaceis majoribus. 
In collibus inter flumina Dawson et Burnett, No. 35. 
Sepala coherentia cuneato-linearia corolle dimidium sequantia. 
(The phyllodia are rather broader than in Cunningham’s specimens, 
with more nerves; but they do not otherwise differ.—G. B.]
