40 TROPICAL ACACIAS OF QrEENSLAXD. 



Here follow some notes on indivifliial species. 



39. julifera Beiith. in Hook. Loud. Journ. Bat., i, 374. 

 Type from Rocld's Bay, Port Curtis. Bentham, B. Fl., 

 ii, 406, also quotes Cumberland Islands. R. Brown : Rock- 

 ingham Bay, W. Hill ; Edgecombe (Edgecumbe) Bay, 

 Dallachy. He figures the pod in Trons. Linn. Soc, iii, t. 68. 



Through the kindness of Kew I have a specimen of 

 the type, which is figured at Plate ii. As it has not 

 been figured in the Iconography, a figure of a spike, Edge- 

 cumbe Bay. Dallachy, has been added. 



It has often been confused with A. Solandri in 

 collections ; see that species for some notes. 



40. Solandri Benth. in B. Fl.. ii. 406. The type is 

 from Bay of Inlets, Banks and Solander (Herb. R. Br.), 

 and I have received from the British Museum a fragment of 

 the type with the reference='" Mimosa salicifolia Sol., 

 Bay of Inlets, Banks and Solander. 1770." It is not figured 

 in Botany, Cook's Voyage, nor in Iconography. The 

 pod although described in 1893 by Mueller (see below), 

 has not been previously figured, and I figure it. Note the 

 ver}' great length of the rhachis. 



Besides the type, I have it from Port Denison (collector 

 of Mueller, probably Frau Dietrich), Macleay Mem. Vol., 

 p. 225 : (Port Denison and Edgecumbe Bay are identical 

 localities), and also from Percy Islands (Henry Tryon 

 through C. T. White). Yeppoon, near Rockhampton (J. 

 L. Boorman), where it is a small tree with stem 6-12 inches 

 in diameter, with hard, flaky bark, timber dark-coloured 

 in centre. 



The A.jtdifera (0 or A. Solandri (?) of R. H. Cambage 

 at p. 420, near Normanton (No. 4,109), young pods only 

 available, is probably A. hptocarpa A. Cunn., but that 

 species is very near A. Solandri, as has already been indi- 

 cated. 



Dallachy collected both species at Edgecumbe Bay. 

 The spike of A. Solandri is thin and much interrupted, 

 while that of A. julifera is not (the structure of the indi- 

 vidual flowers is very different). I have already compared 

 the podB of the two species.
