basi et apice acutis marginatis fuscis Isevibus continuis, semini- 



bus 



In plaga petrsea (Sandstone table-land) terrae Amhemicae et ad flumen 



Victoriae. Hb. M. 1 & 73 partim. 

 Rami adscendentes. Phyllodia 2-4'" longa, in quoque vertieillo 8-14. 



Stipules lineam metientes v. breviores. Capitula 3-4'" diaraetro 



tenentia nee ut in ^4. Baueri minima. Legumina circiter 1|" longa, 



2'" lata. 



[Closely allied to the A. Baueri, of which it has the foliage ; but the 

 heads of flowers, as well as the flowers themselves, are twice the size. 

 — G. B.] 



29. Acacia subternata, n. sp. Glabra, ramuHs augulatis sulcatis 

 junioribus innovationibusque viscidulis, stipulis minimis v. obliteratis, 

 phyllodiis lineari-filiformibus compressis ut plurimum ternatim con- 

 fertis rarius geminis sparsisve brevissime recurvo-cuspidatis, pedun- 

 culis solitariis phyllodia superantibus, capitulis multifloris glabris, 

 calycis corolla semibrevioris 5-partiti laciniis spathulato-linearibus 

 obtusis, legumine piano crasso-coriaceo marginato lanceolato sensim 

 in basin longe angustato oblique striate et oblique septato, semi- 

 nibus 



In plaga elevata petrsea terrae Arnhemicae ad flumina Yictoriae (No. 73 



partim). Roper et Limmen; Bight River. 

 Frutew 3-5'. Phyllodia 3-6'" longa,, y'lx ^"' lata. CoroW« 5-fidae circ. 



r" longae. Legumina addito stipite l|-2" longa, 2-2^'" lata. 

 Species insignis, quintae seriei Juliferarum quoad legumina approxi- 



mans, ceteroquin ad Brunioideas certe pertinens. 



[Appears to be a good species. The arrangement of the phyllodia 

 (should it prove constant) is singular : they are neither verticillate, as 

 in the Brunioidea verticillata, nor solitary at each node, as in the 

 Brunioidea sparsifolia ; but in most cases in fascicles of 2, 3, or 4 

 from each node, something like the leaflets of Aspalathus. — G. B.]
