rachises in both species. It can at once be distinguished from A. procera by 
its pedicelled flowers, and entirely different pods. It is manifestly closely allied 
to Albizzia lebbeck, although very distinct from that species. The pods of the 
two are very similar.

This species is almost certainly not a native of the Philippines; all the 
specimens seen from Luzon are from cultivated trees, but Danao states that 
the specimen from Palawan came from the forest. It appears to be wild in 
the drier parts of Africa and Asia, and is now widely cultivated in many parts 
of the world, China, Japan, West Indies, South America, etc. Most authors have 
followed DeCandolle and Bentham and spelled the specific name “lebbek,” the 
original is, however, “lebbeck.”
