A .species vv^idely distributed in the Philippines, previously confused with 

 Adenanthera pavonina Linn., to w^hich it is closely allied, differing constantly in 

 its .seeds being about half jet-black and half bright red as in A. bicolor Moon. 

 The leaflets are quite different from those of A. hicolor Moon, obtuse, elliptical or 

 oblong-elliptical, as in A . pavonina Linn. The species seems to have the vegetative 

 characters of Adenanthera pavonina Linn., and the seed characters of A. bicolor 

 Moon.
