No. 3. This may be a phyllode or simply pinnate, petiole 

 5 mm. to 1*3 cm., sometimes slightly dilated, glabrous; 

 leaflets one to four pairs, often unequally pinnate; rachis 

 4 to 7 mm., sometimes vertically flattened, with terminal 

 seta. 



No. 4. This may be a phyllode or simply pinnate, petiole 

 up to 2 cm., vertically flattened to 3 mm. broad ; leaflets 

 from one leaflet up to three pairs. 



No. 5. Usually a phyllode, but may be simply pinnate 

 with one pair of leaflets, or abruptly bipinnate with one or 

 two pairs of leaflets, petiole up to 6 mm. broad. 



Nos. 6 to 10. Phyllodes linear-lanceolate to cuneate, 

 sometimes falcate, narrowed at the base, with a strong 

 central nerve and two others less conspicuous not always 

 confluent at the apex and some finer veins parallel or anas- 

 tomosing, terminating in a somewhat pungent spine about 

 2 mm. long. 



This is the sixth seedling described in this series where 

 the No. 3 leaf may be reduced to a phyllode. (See Acacia 

 Bancrofti, supra,) 



This species, the seedling of which was described by 

 Lubbock 1 from two plants, seldom produces bipinnate 

 leaves, and may develop phyllodes when only an inch above 

 the soil.
