6. See also a reference in Spencer and Gillen's " Across Australia " (i, 72, 1912). 
7, In the Larapintine Region (Tate, Horn Expedition, p. 156) we have recorded 
under A. cyperophylla : 
" Warman Rocks (Tietkens), Mount Udor (E. Giles), from description, 
' Geogr. Travels,' p. 32 ; also by margins of creeks flowing on scarped face of Stanley 
Tableland to the Stevenson River, and on the east slope on Red Mulga Creek." 
8, The A. cyperophylla F.v.M. of the " Report on the Botany of the Elder 
Exploring Expedition," by Mueller and Tate, Proc. Roy. Soc. S.A., xvi, 352 (1896), is, 
as at least as regards the Warrina, S.A., specimen, A. brachystachya, Benth. I have 
not seen the Arkaringa Valley specimen. 
9. " Red Mulga," between Dalhousie and Blood's Creek (in say 26 30' S. Lat. 
and say 135 20' E. Long.), S.A., August, 1913 (Capt. S. A. White, through J. M. Black). 
Only found in very limited areas on one or two creeks. It is recorded by Mr. Black in 
Trans. Roy. Soc. S.A., xxxviii, 465. The specimen consists of phyllodes, with one pod 
containing ripe seeds in situ, 
As regards Queensland we have a specimen referred to by Bentham which was 
collected by Leichhardt, and which may or may not have come from that State, 
although it probably did. The Flinders River specimen, also seen by Bentham, of 
course came from Queensland. 
Bailey (Queensland Flora, 505) .merely says " Southern inland localities " and 
gives nothing definite. 
As regards Western Australia, it is in the late Dr. A. Morrison's list of Extra- 
tropic Western Australian plants published in the Western Australian Year-book for 
1900-01, but without a specific locality. It is not in the collection of the Government 
Botanist at Perth. 
Following is a translation of some remarks under A. cyperophylla, by Messrs. 
Diels and Pritzel in Engler's Bot. Jahrb. XXXV, 307, 1905. With reference to the 
" figures and types of Mueller," the only figure I know, is the centre oneof A. cyperophylla 
in Mueller's 'Iconography of Acacias,' and the only type is that already described. 
I am inclined to doubt the correctness of the determinations of Messrs. Diels and 
Pritzel in regard to this particular species, which is not to be surprised at, and the 
specimens quoted by them are not available, with the exception of a specimen by 
Mr. W. V. Fitzgerald which I have commented upon, p. 273. 
" We have got numerous specimens from the interior regions which agree entirely with the figures 
and types of Mueller. 
" Habitat in the Austin district near Cue in open muddy gravelly shrublands; flowered and fruited 
in the month of June. A shrub 3 m. high, remarkable for its somewhat terete phyllodes (d. 3275); near 
Mount Malcolm (W. V. Fitzgerald); in the Coolgardie district near Coolgardie (Webster, 1898). A form 
resinous in the young parts, 2 m. high, had fruit in the month of November in the open muddy forest near 
Dundas (D. 5844),"
