" Gourley or Gooralee. Found occasionally from Moree to Mungindi." 
(C. T. Kerry, photographer. ) " Gurley. Is utilised to form ' shelter rings ' for 
stock. A characteristic I noticed about these rings is the fact that numerous seedlings 
were growing round the circumference of the ring, some of which have developed into 
small trees. No evidence appeared that the sheep were very partial to these seedlings. 
As the seed appears readily capable of germination, it is very probable that this Acacia 
could be used as shelter-rings for stock." (E. Breakwell, Agrostologist.) Gurley, 14 
miles from Moree.

R. H. Cambage, in Proc. Roy. Soc. N.S.W., xlix, 432 (1915), says it "occurs 
to within 80 miles south of Normanton, and grows along the banks of streams, the 
long narrow pendulous phyllodes, sometimes bluish in colour, often hanging over the 
watercourses. It was noticed at various- points, including Richmond Downs and 
Winton to Longreach, where it is called Native Willow. This species prefers basic to 
siliceous soils and is not common along creeks in sandy areas."
