Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox

Acacia anserina, also known as hairy sandstone wattle,[1] is a shrub of the genus Acacia and the subgenus Plurinerves. It is native to a small area in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.[2]

Description

The shrub typically grows to a height of around Шаблон:Cvt and has an erect, openly branched habit. It has ribbed branchlets that are densely hairy and has persistent stipules that are Шаблон:Cvt in length. Like most species of Acacia it has phyllodes rather than true leaves. The evergreen dimidiate phyllodes have a widely elliptic or occasionally widely obovate shape with a rounded upper margin and a more or less straight lower margin. The hairy phyllodes are Шаблон:Cvt in length and Шаблон:Cvt wide and have many longitudinal indistinct nerves.[1] When it blooms it produces simple inflorescences with spherical flower-heads containing 17 to 25 light golden coloured flowers. Following flowering flat and narrowly oblong red-brown seed pods form that are Шаблон:Cvt in length.[1]

Taxonomy

The species was first formally described by the botanists Bruce Maslin, Matthew David Barrett and Russell Lindsay Barrett in 2013 as part of the work A baker's dozen of new wattles highlights significant Acacia (Fabaceae: Mimosoideae) diversity and endemism in the north-west Kimberley region of Western Australia as published in the journal Nuytsia.[3]

Distribution

It is confined to a small area in the Princess May Range on gentle slopes under sandstone ridges among a fire-protected pocket of dense vegetation in the west Kimberley.[1]
