[This will probably prove a very distinct species, if more perfect 

 specimens show the inflorescence to be normal. The capitula appear 

 to be reduced to a single flower each, and are arranged in a simple 

 raceme ; but it is not impossible that the whole may be a monstrous or 

 abnormal elongation of the axis of a single capitulum. — G. B.] 



7. Acacia stipulosa, n. sp. Glanduloso-pubescens, ramulis tereti- 

 usculis, stipulis persistentibus setaceis inferne connatis ciliolatis, phyl- 

 lodiis confertis parvis oblique lanceolatis curvatis mucronatis tenuiter 

 plurinerviis, margine supero prope medium glanduligero, pedunculis 

 axillaribus solitariis monocephalis phyllodium superantibus capitulis 

 globosis multifloris puberulis, bracteolis acutissimis, sepalis liberis 

 linearibus obtusis corollaa subcequilongis, leguminibus coriaceis lato- 

 linearibus hispidulis curvatis sessilibus intus subcontinuis inter semina 

 non contractis, seminibus ovatis leviter compressis lucenti-nigris 

 utrinque impressis strophiolo pallido plicato triplo breviore sufiiiltis. 



Secus partes australes fluminis Victorise. Hb. M. No. 71 • 



Phyllodia 1^3'" longa, 1-1^'" lata, mucrone tenui terminata. Stipules 



1-1|"' longae. Capitula laete lutea. Corolla vix 1'" longa. Le- 



gumen circiter sesquipoUicare acutum, 3'" latum, satis compressum 



dilute fuscum. Semina 1^'" longa. 

 Hue pertinere videtur A. deltoidea /3. pungens, Bth. I. c. p. 333, vix 



autem varietas primaria Cunninghami. 



[This plant diff'ers from the true^. deltoidea chiefly in the hairy pod; 

 it is also generally more downy ; but I have still considerable doubts 

 whether it will not prove a mere variety of ^. deltoidea. — G. B.]

 Quidem nee flores nee fructus vidi ; speciem autem phyllodiorum forma
