"This species is allied to A. glaber, Radlk., but it has much larger thinner leaves 

 drying bright green, with shorter denser panicles of larger flowers. The specimens 

 bear, on the lower branches of the panicle, curious conical hairy galls 5 mm long and 

 terminated by the abortive perianth. Each contained a dipterous larva."
