10 THE GENUS ALBIZZIA,

are at first almost white, according to Mr. Carron, but change into 
yellow. 
A. monilifera pies iue moniliferum, Benth. in Hook. | 
Journ. iii. 211). Found on the Liverpool river during Captain adel 
ex 
net (Pithecolobium grandiflorum, Benth. Flora Austr. ii. e 
Newly-discovered localities for this brilliant plant are:—the Tweed 
comp ae — Haven — Rockhampton (Thozet) ; Rocking- 
m Bay (Dallachy); I found it on one of the islands of Barrier 
he tree seeks the vicinity of the sea. Its bark is smooth and 
whitish, the wood hard and pale. Sometimes three pairs of pinne occur. 
The leaflets attain sorore the length of 4 inches. The calyx is often 
over 4 lines long. The pod is pulpless, a few inches long, more or less 
circularly twisted, hard, one inch or less broad, orange-coloured inside. 
Seeds black, shining, egg-shaped, turgid, placed transverse ely. No con- 
spicuous arillus. ‘The plant was originally inten for dedication to

placed transversely, turgid, egg-shaped, black, about $ inch long, without 
any marked lateral impressions. No evident. arillus exists. 
Two other species of Australian Albizzias are contained in our. collec- 
tions, but in a state too imperfect to admit of e examination; one is 
the Glenelg river, the other from Rockingham Bay. 
The species of Pi/Aecolobium = transferable to Albizzia were fully 
recorded by Bentham in 1844 (Hook. Lond. Journ. iii. 195-223), as far 
as known up to that time. Among spaa which have since been added 
we find kar aneen Guadalupense (Chapman, * Flora of the Southers 
United States,’ p. 116); P. subcoriaceum (Thwaites, Enum. Plant. Ze 
100; E Jagifalium (Blume in Miquel's * Flora van Nederlaudsch 
Indie, i. 35); P. Junghuhnianum (Benth. Pl. Jun 
gulum (Miq. Prodr. Flor. Sumatr. 282); P. oppositum (Miq. 1. c. 283); 
vifolium (Benth. in Smithson, Contrib. iii. 67) E Panamense (Duchas. et 
si in ge xxiii. 746); . Splitgerberianum ots: Stirp. Suri- 
, 5); P. Kegelii eee in Liunma, xxi. 249); P. Miquelianum

In conclusion, I may remark, that Archidendron can be generically 
separated from Albizzia only by its plurality of carpe's ; further, that even 
Calliandra, Enterolobium, and, perhaps, Serianthes, might well be incor- 
pode in the genus Albizzia, j sapa as the great monog vui of these 
it become early supported by properly defined right Semeri It 
seems to me, that if we extend Albizzia in the manner just indicated, we 
should obtain a large and well-cireumscribed genus, collateral with deacia, 
agreeing with the latter also in.the extreme modifications of the pod, ar
