Okay soo.. I went back today and got another small branch. I also noticed a few ring barking's despite SEVERAL fallen trees and branches, so now i'm pretty damn sure it's A.Obtuse thanks for the reassurances. I'll tread lightly as it is mainly young growth (I believe, although I'm no expert ) I do know it's a privilege and an honor to have access to these great trees. I'll make sure to post up some results after the weather fines up for a decent while. Thanks again!

i'm certainly no expert but i'm pretty sure it will be either A.Concurrens or a related species probably - http://www.worldwidewatt...iesgallery/leiocalyx.php like my picture below

^..yeah i think it's leiocalyx..

whoops i also found a few pods on a single branch..? odd..

I am new to the wonderful world of Acacia's, went for a walk around my property today and found many of these beautiful trees. Definitely believe they are part of the Acacia family but not sure exactly what type, curious as to what you guys/girls think. Ps. I am in SE Qld

Please, any input would be much appreciated, or even books or website recommendations to help indetify Queensland Acacias?

.. it looks to me like you have Acacia Concurrens... a good candidate for dmt. I don't beleive there has been any published findings of dmt, although there was I think a bioassay of an extract which was suspected to contain dmt or other tryptamines with a tree from 'A. cunninghamii group' [nen888]

Thank you, that is excellent news. It is actually quite amazing how many of these trees are around where I am, easily more than any other tree, any direction you look you will see one. But I guess there is only one way to find out it contains DMT or something similar.

I envy nen's knowledge, but what is the best way to learn how to identify each of these magical trees, Im slowly learning but they still all look very much the same to me.

pods are an important element of i.d and are one of the best indicators if one is unclear after studying the other components like phyllodes, flowers, bark etc .. the nerve arrangements are an important part of the phyllode to look at - as well as the texture, length and width, tip and edges. It is important to note the time of year that the tree flowers as well as when it puts out seed pods. the taxanomic features that distinguish differen't species are often subtle so it is good to look at these key features whenever studying acacias

a good article about taxonomy

Hi all, went for a bit of a walk today and found heaps of these acacia! can anyone ID them?

Thats one flower.
The pic below is of one that hasn't flowered. Not sure if its an acacia. Pics of the tree + its trunk


The trunk on the right is part of the tree!

Thanks!

Thats a really beautiful tree you've got there mate! I'm not sure what this one is...where abouts are you located?

it looks very much like acacia longifolia, although it seems to share genetics with other species or even is perhaps another species in its own rightas the phyllodes look shorter and more narrow than a typical longifolia.. and the flower rods are longer than longifolia.

yeah the second one is an acacia..

and yeah autocultivo, it looks like you have obtuse

Im located in sydney NSW. Yeah from what i've seen from looking around its an acacia longfolia. Are these a candidate for extraction?

some strains are worth working with it seems.. I have not had experience myself with the active longifolia, though it apparently shares similarities with acacia obtusifolia and grows less prostrate than most longifolia.

here's a couple posts on active longifolia

Not sure if this is the correct section if not can it be moved. I am having troubles identifying these 2 acacias. They are from the northern rivers NSW region of Australia. if anyone local or not has an idea that would be great. Ive used a few dichotomous keys to no avail if anyone knows a good tool for identification that would be great. Thnx in the advance.

so i am now an acacian-in-training.
i found what i suspect is retinodes, it was found at sea-level (or close to it) unlike every other acacia found thus far.

is my suspicion of retinodes correct? (southwestern maui)

hey Parshvik

Sorry I'm not sure what your tree is but i'm sure its not retinodes...retinodes only has a single main vein and yours appears to have 2 or more and also has differen't shaped phyllodes..

I was actually thinking your tree looked remarkably similar to acacia confusa, though the phyllodes look perhaps a little too long (and more banana shaped) and i haven't seen enough photos of confusa's pods either to know them well. are those more ball flowers going down the stem beginning to form? I wonder if it is related...very interesting tree anyways are you planning on testing it? love how the phyllodes all curl in the same direction spiralling around the stem.. very psychedelic looking tree

i believe the brownish balls in the foreground were actually dead flowers.

but yes, the phyllodes were very uniform in their spiral and shape.

there was a downward facing branch that looked almost TOO perfect to be natural.

very cool stuff...

i guess i will extract it regardless of what species it is

Hey guys went for another massive walk around my home town and found some awesomely maidenii-esque acacias. Was looking for an ID thanks!

Tree 1:


Tree 2:


Tree 3:



Tree 4:


Thanks in advance!

other than the last they all look like variants of acacia floribunda.. the flowers on the first pic are a little tighter than most floribunda.. I would lean towards floribunda rather than maidenii purely because of the abundance of flower rods.. it would be good to see some close up pictures of the phyllodes. floribunda is a varable species which often has differing taxanomic features from area to area.. especially in the phyllodes. maidenii tends to have shorter and more sparsely arranged flowers though the phyllodes are quite variable.. the last tree i'm not sure on sorry... apart from the cream coloured flowers it looks quite similar to acacia longifolia (usually bright yellow), though the phyllodes seem a little to narrow and don't like leathery enough... i'll leave that for someone else to chime in on..
