NOTES ON ACACIA. 211 



Range. 

 So far as we know at present it is confined to New South 

 Wales, and mainly to the Broken Hill district, but so close 

 to the South Australian border, that it is impossible for it 

 not to occur in the latter State. 



Thackaringa, west of Broken Hill, close to Soutli Aus- 

 tralian border (J. E. Oarne, October 1907). In flower. 



"Nelia," Mulculca Creek, twenty miles south-east of 

 Broken Hill. (Assistant Forester Andrew C. Loder, No. 

 29, same tree as No. 17, January 1906). Pnyllodes only, 

 attacked by galls. Also flowers, October 1905. 



Kars, some forty miles south-east of Broken Hill (A. O. 

 Loder, January 1907). 



" Nelia," Yancowinnia, Broken Hill district (A. O. Loder, 

 November 1905). Flowers, wood and bark. 



"Broken Hill Gidgee." Dense shrubby tree, hoary or 

 glaucous. Twenty to twenty-two feet in extreme height. 

 (E. O. Andrews, November 1918). Fruits and late flowers. 



Ivanhoe via Hay. (K. H. Bennett 1886). In flower only 

 and det. Mueller as A. rigens. These specimens accom- 

 panied the bark analysed as A. rigens in the second edition 

 of my " Wattles and Wattle-barks." The specimens in my 

 possession are not very good, and I invite attention to the 

 district as a probable, not absolutely certain locality for 

 the species. 



Affinity. 



With A. Cambagei R. T. Baker. This is the common 

 "Gidgee," which is figured in Part xxxn of my " Forest 

 Flora of New South Wales." It has odoriferous foliage, 

 the pnyllodes broader and the pods very different. 



Juliflorae (Stenophyllae). 



A. COOLGARDIENSIS n. Sp. 



Frutex fere glaber. Phyllodiis subresinosis, lineare subulatis, 

 minute striatis, rigidis, nervis tenuibus parallel ibus, acumine breve
