Common west of the Jhelum on dry rocky ground. I have 
not seen this plant in the Punjab plains to the south and east 
of the Salt Range. It occurs up to about 1000 m. in the foothills 
of the Himalaya in the Rawalpindi and Hazara districts where — 
it is called by the natives kikri or sometimes babuli, the 
diminutives of kilar or babul, (Acacia arabica, Willd.). When 
not in flower or fruit it might easily be taken for an unhealthy 
A. arabica seedling.
