Names
Albizia tanganyicensis subsp tanganyicensis [family FABACEAE]
Common names
A. rhodesica Burtt Davy, Fl. Transv. 2 : xviii, 348 (1932); Codd, Trees & Shrubs Kruger Nat. Park 56 (1951); O. B. Miller in J. S. Afr. Bot. 18 : 27 (1952); Pardy in Rhod. Agric. J. 51 : 4 (1954); Palgrave, Trees Cent. Afr. 269 (1956). Syntypes: Rhodesia, Matopos, Galpin 7082 (PRE!); Victoria Falls, Allen 174 (K!); Rogers 5319 (K!). A. lebbeck var. australis Burtt Davy in Burtt Davy & Hoyle, Checklist Nyasaland 53 (1936) nomen nudum; Burtt Davy & Hoyle, rev. Topham, Checklist Nyasaland, ed.2 : 65 (1958) nomen nudum.
Habitat
A very distinct species which is readily distinÂguished by its thin smooth papery-peeling bark. The flowers are usually produced when the tree is leafless, and specimens collected in this state, without notes about the bark, are liable to be confused with speciÂmens of A. antunesiana in the same state. Apart from having an entirely different distribution in our area, A. antunesiana may be distinguished by its smaller flowers and (in dried specimens) by the more promiÂnent and raised nerves on the calyx-tube.
Use
subsp. tanganyicensis Brenan in Kew Bull. 29 : 717 (1975). Type as above.
