 Bordertown.

A. tarculensis, J. M. Black. Tarcoola (W. A. Cannon). 

 Locally called "Steel bush," from the greyish or glaucous 

 appearance of the leaves; pods still unripe (September 6, 

 1918), thick but flat, 30-35 mm. long, 5 mm. broad, silky- 

 pubescent. 



A. brachystachya, Benth. Near Leigh Creek (Dist. S; 

 W. A. Cannon). 



A. sublunata, Benth. Hills five miles north of Quorn 

 (W. A. Cannon, July, 1918). Mueller considered that his 

 A . parvifolia was a species distinct from A . sublunata; 

 Bentham (Fl. Aust., ii., 378) united them. Tate recorded

 contains no specimen of either. Dr. Cannon's specimen (the 

 only one I have seen) has no flowers except a few dry ones 

 hanging round the branch. Many detached bracteoles are also 

 present; they are membranous, very concave, almost semi- 

 globular, and must enfold the flowers to a degree not usual in
