TRIBE I.—MIMOSEZ. R. Brown. 
Flowers regular or nearly so, often polygamous, rarely all bisexual. 
Sepals 4-5, equal, often combined into a 4—5-toothed calyx : sestivation 
valvular or very rarely imbricative. Petals 4—5, equal, usually hypo- 
gynous, rarely inserted into the bottom of the calyx, sometimes dis- 
tinct, sometimes all more or less united: sestivation valvular, or very 
rarely imbricative. Stamens inserted with the petals, distinct or mo- 
nadelphous, as many or several times as many as the petals. Embryo 
straight, the radicle never being bent along the lobes of the cotyle- 
dons: cotyledons usually foliaceous. Podosperm usually flexuose or 
twisted.—Leaves abruptly pinnated or bipinnated. 
SUBTRIBE I.—4ACACIEJE. 
Calyx and corolla with the estivation valvular. 
LXIV. ENTADA. Adans.; DC. 
Flowers polygamous, bisexual and male. Petals 5, distinct, or slightly 
connected at the very base. Stamens 10-25; anthers tipped with a gland. 
e compressed, evidently jointed, joints 1-seeded ; the valves jointed 
and ih maturity separating from each other; the sutures (or replum) persis- 
tent. Seeds thick, naked. Cotyledons thick, remaining unchanged under 
ground during germination.—Climbing unarmed immense shrubs. Leaves 
bipinnated or conjugately pinnated, the rachis often ending in a tendril. 
Flowers white or pale yellow, spiked, very numerous, several abortive. Le- 
gumes glabrous, unarmed, very large.
