Specimens are in flower only, and in that state only differ 
from the continental specimens in the absence of all glands 
between the leaflets. They agree also with Jack's character 
in all but the fruit, which” he describes as so very different 
from that of any other Mimoseous plant, that one cannot 
help suspecting he must have had before him the pod of 
Some Cassia, near C. fistula. 
Mimosa Saponaria, Lour. Fl. Cochin. p. 653, or Inga Sa- 
ponaria of Willdenow and De Candolle must be near to 
P. bigeminum, if a Mimoseous plant at all. But this point 
!5 very doubtful, as Loureiro did not see either flower or 
Tut; and he says the leaves are sometimes simply, some- 
times doubly pinnate, a circumstance hitherto unknown 
amongst Mimosee.
