User's notes
About 5 shrubs on path of roadside bush, used by service vehicles, to access poles on top of knoll. This species wasn't present in the bush immediately beside the roadside patch, so possibly introduced by contamination

There were many species of exotic Acacias planted by the gas pipeline authority despite attempts by myself an others to allow natural regeneration to take place. Many of these have produced hybrids over the years. Urila Road where the pipeline passes is also lined with these hybrids

I should add that boormani and pravissima readily hybridise producing progeny with a variety of leaf shapes. They are genetically closely related.
