and phyllodes, at first green and pilose, becoming hoary; 

 first internode *5 mm.; second 2 to 3 mm.; third 3 mm. to 

 1 cm.; fourth 5 mm. to 1 cm. 



Leaves — No. 1. Abruptly pinnate, petiole 2 to 3 mm. 

 long, at first green, becoming reddish-green, glabrous ; 

 leaflets three pairs, oblong, acuminate, often mucronate, 

 3 to 5 mm. long, 2 to 3 mm. broad, margins often red, mid- 

 rib usually distinct, second vein showing under lens, under- 

 side pale green, faintly hoary, upperside green, glabrous; 

 rachis 4 to 5 mm. long, glabrous, excurrent; stipules minute. 



No. 2. Abruptly bipinnate, petiole 6 mm. to 1 cm. long, 

 at first green and glabrous, becoming pilose to hoary, 

 excurrent; leaflets two to three pairs, the basal pair some- 

 times little more than rudimentary, oblong to obovate, 

 underside pale green, very faintly hoary, margins often red, 

 with a few scattered hairs; rachis glabrous, excurrent. 



Nos. 3 and 4. Abruptly bipinnate, petioles up to 1 cm. 

 long ; leaflets four to five pairs. 



No. 5. Abruptly bipinnate, petiole about 1 cm. long, 

 slightly dilated, or channelled above, leaflets seven pairs; 

 rachis 1*7 cm. long; stipules reduced to scales. 



No. 6. Abruptly bipinnate, petiole 2*5 cm. long, vertically 

 flattened, 2 mm. broad, narrowed at both ends, pilose", with 

 a prominent nerve along the lower margin, decurrent on 

 the stem, and connected with the base of the pinnae, also 

 having a fine, though distinct vein along the centre of the 

 petiole, and confluent at both ends with the lower marginal 

 nerve; leaflets eight pairs. 



No. 7. Abruptly bipinnate, petiole 3 cm. long, vertically 

 flattened, 6 mm. broad, narrowed at both ends, owing to 

 tho* flange like broadening of the dilated petiole the 

 prominent nerve in its central portion is slightly removed 

 from the lower margin, but coincides with it for a short
