This species is allied to A. subvelutina, on the one hand, and 

 A. intermedia on the other. The young foliage being somewhat 

 cordate at the base and slightly glaucous like the first, and the 

 habit of the tree is that of the latter. But its panicles and 

 flowers are larger, the pedicels longer and the secondary ribs of 

 the calyx are more frequently wanting ; the foliage is also much 

 larger and of a thicker consistence.
