Characteristics

A small tree with dark brown, somewhat corky, furrowed bark and green fernlike leaves; flowers in balls, pods fairly large and flat. It is somewhat similar in appearance to A. sutherlandii, but grows mostly in areas of higher rainfall south and east of that species, extending into the Burnett district and on to the coast about Bowen in Queensland. It favours clay and clay loam soils, particularly pebbly types (Everist, 1969).
