Macbride — Notes on certain Leguminosae 9 
borne by a valid species.”” Robert Brown’s species is variable and 
in typical form seems to be confined to the region of King George’s 
Sound. The few narrow and revolute leaflets as well as the branch- 
lets are hispid-ciliate. There are four forms which differ consider- 
ably from this typical state and which consequently have received 
varietal recognition. Two of these varieties are represented in the 
Gray Herbarium. The variety brevifolia is characterized by the 
broad essentially plane and nearly or quite glabrous leaflets; the 
variety intermedia chiefly by the more numerous (6-7 pairs) but 
slightly revolute leaflets.

This is distinguished from the typical form of the species by the 
long spreading hairs on the branches. The synonymy of this 
plant as given by Bentham, Trans. Linn. Soc. xxx. 465 (1875), is 
not entirely correct. In the first place the original publication is 
in Lodd. Bot. Cab. t. 1544 (1829) where Loddiges publishes the 
name A. undulaefolia for Fraser from whom he had received a 
specimen so labeled. Bentham credits the species to Cunningham 
“in G. Don, Gen. Syst. ii. 404.” But this publication is thee 
years later than Loddiges’s. Among the synonyms Bentham lists 
“A. uncinata, Lodd.; Lindl. Bot. Reg. t. 1332.” Lindley himself 
is the authority for this name, published in 1830, and it is an exact 
Synonym of A. wndulaefolia Fraser.

Walter in his Fl. Car. 252 (1788) wrongly referred this plant to 
Mimosa Intsia L, to which indeed it bears superficial resemblance. 
Mimosa. Intsia of Walter, therefore, is, not a new name but repre-
