44 TROPICAL ACACIAS OF QUEENSLAND. 



Bancroft) ; Dugald River, Granada (R. H. Cambage, No. 

 4,165). 



I have since found additional North Queensland 

 specimens, which increase its range. The first is 



" On the banks of the Etheridge River at George- 

 town " (R. H. Cambage, No. 3,898). Provisionally 

 identified as A. delihrata A. Cunn. in Proc. Roy. Soc. 

 N.8.W., xlix, 420. Scantily in flower; in young fruit. 



The second is a specimen received from the Melbourne 

 Herbarium (the late J. G. Luehmann, then Government 

 Botanist), collected by the late J. Dallachy at the Herbert 

 River, 1st August, 1863, and noted by him, " grows 12 feet 

 high, flowers yellow and sweet scented." It is evidently a 

 riparian species. 



Judging from the specimens, it is a slender, graceful 

 plant ; the two specimens just referred to have the phyllodes 

 somewhat shorter and narrower than those of the type. 

 They are 6 to 8 cm. (say 2| to 3 inches) long, 4 to 5 mm. 

 broad, thin and somewhat resinous, with a few distant, 

 scattered hairs. 



46. plectocarpa A. Cunn., Benth. in Hook. Lond. Journ. 

 Bot., i, 376. The co-types come from Cambridge Gulf 

 (North West Australia), and Sims' Island, Northern 

 Territory. Bailey, p. 511, follows Bentham in " Islands 

 of the Gulf of Carpentaria " {E. Brown), but he is wrong in 

 interpreting this as Queensland. The Queensland plants 

 referred to this species which have been seen by me are the 



A . ylectocarpa of the Iconography, which is A . Hammondi 

 Maiden. A. plectocarpa is critically examined bj' me in 

 Proc. Boy. Soc. N.S.W.. li, 90, (1917), Avith a plate. 



Hitherto known only from North West Australia and 

 the Northern Territory. I have received a specimen in 

 flower belonging to this species from Dr. Eric Mjoberg, 

 Coleman River, Cape York Peninsula, and thus we have an 

 additional species for the Queensland flora. 



47. Armitii (F.v.M.) Maiden (Sjai. .4. delibrata F.v.M., 

 " Iconography of Acacias," non A. Cunn.). 



Einasleigh River (Armit). See Proc. Roy. Soc. N.S.W.^ 

 li, 84 (1917).
