Name

Senegalia quadriglandulosa (Martius) Seigler & Ebinger, comb. nov. 

Synonymy and types

Basionym:  Acacia quadriglandulosa Martius, "Herb. fl. bras." Flora 20(2):  110.  (Beiblätter).  1837. - TYPE:  BRAZIL.  in sylvis ad Canto Gallo, prov. Sebastianopolitanae. (holotype: not seen, perhaps at M or BR).  NOTE:  Martius (1837) suggests that this species is conspecific with Mimosa plana Vellozo (1827). The plates of Vellozo cannot be considered as type material because they were made from his drawings after he had died.  Apparently no specimens nor his original drawings exist.  It is not possible to identify species from Vellozo's drawing and have placed his name under Excluded Names.
