Apparently endemic to Mozambique
Shrub 1-2 m. high (? taller and up to 5 m.); young branchlets with numerous conspicuous dark sessile pustular glands, sometimes also with a very few inconspicuous hairs up to 0·5 mm. long. Stipules spinescent, up to 5 cm. long, sometimes rather thicker than in related species, brownish to whitish, often somewhat deflexed; “ant-galls” and other prickles absent. Leaves with a small sessile gland at the junction of each of the top 1-2 pairs of pinnae, often also with a similar gland on the upper side of the petiole, and in addition pubescent and with numerous smaller dark scattered glands; pinnae 7-13(20) pairs; leaflets 6-15 pairs, (2)3-6·5 x 1-2(3) mm., ciliate on the margins, otherwise glabrous, eglandular except often for a few inconspicuous glands on the margin near the apex, spinulose-mucronate at the apex; lateral nerves invisible beneath. Flower-colour uncertain, probably yellow. Calyx c. 2 mm. long. Corolla only known withered and torn. Pods dehiscent, 3-6 x 0·8-1 cm., falcate, constricted (often irregularly) or not between the seeds, with numerous conspicuous dark sessile pustular glands over the surface, as well as numerous spreading setiform hairs up to c. 1 mm. long. Seeds olive-brown, c. 6 x 6 mm., subcircular, compressed; areole 3-3·5 x 2·5-3 mm.

Shrub c. 5 m. high, dioecious, deciduous; branches densely clothed with grey-brownish appressed 2-branched, medifixed and shortly pediculated trichomes 0.5–1.0 mm. long, soon glabrescent, mature light grey and marked with prominent leaf-scars. Leaves alternate; petiole 1.5–3.3 cm. long, slender, with indumentum as on the young branches; lamina 5.5–12.0 x 3.0–7.5 cm., obovate to elliptic, on mature leaves glabrous or subglabrous above, shortly woolly below, the trichomes easily removable, green-brownish or brown above, grey-yellowish or grey-brownish below in sicco, subacute, acute or acuminate to obtuse acuminate or rounded at apex, subacute to rounded at base, margins subentire to irregularly serrate-dentate, papery, with 4–6 secondary nerves on each side of the midrib, the lower ones subopposite appearing 3–5-nerved from or near base. Cymes arranged in a panicle 3–9 cm. long and 4–8 cm. wide with indumentum like the branches, peduncle as long as half of the whole, slender. Flowers subsessile. Female flowers with calyx 7–9 mm. long, narrowly infundibuliform, slightly ridged, minutely tomentose-woolly outside, puberulous inside, 4–5-toothed, the teeth soon eroded, papery; corolla (? white) glabrous, tube 6.5–8.0 mm. long, 1.5 mm. wide, cylindrical, lobes 4, 6.0–6.5 x 2.5–3.0 mm., oblanceolate, obtuse; staminodes 4, filaments c. 1 mm. long, sterile anthers c. 0.7 mm. long; ovary c. 2 mm. long, ovoid; style 10–11 mm. long, first-forked at 3–4 mm. and with stigmatic branches 4–6 mm. long, linear but a little flattened, denticulate. Male flowers and fruits unknown.
