Acacia hemignosta
Acacia hemignosta commonly known as clubleaf wattle, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to northern Australia. It is a tree, sometimes a shrub, usually with rough and more or less corky bark. Its phyllodes are lance-shaped to narrowly lance-shaped with the narrower end towards the base, straight to slightly curved, its flowers are borne in spherical heads of bright golden yellow flowers and its pods are narrowly oblong, flat, papery and glabrous.
Clubleaf wattle has scattered occurrences in northern Australia north of 22°S, and is found in the Kimberley region of Western Australia, the north of the Northern Territory and the Cape York Peninsula area of Queensland. It grows in sandy and lateritic soils in flat or undulating country and in heavier soils close to creeks, mostly in open woodland.
