When tKe spines are inflated, this species resembles A. spadicigera ; but the pinnx and leaflets are more 

 numerous, the spines with the connate base very much broader, and the spikes of flowers very different. 

 (See also 388- A. acatlensis, in which the small fine stipules are almost spinescciit.)
