deleted those last 2 posts^ due to some person who seems to be promoting ayahuasca, with a link under they're name to a site selling ayahuasca tea with no relevance at all to this thread or acacia trees.

^..DreamTripper..i'll step in for a moment..
a more detailed close-up of the phyllodes would help, to see vein pattern and detail..
if there's no basal gland (small dot on the margin of leaf near base),
& depending on vein structure, then it may well be A. floribunda..the flowers certainly look like it..
pods (in a couple of months) would help confirm ID..

Thanks, most factors seem to be suggesting it is floribunda.
It was a bushy tree perhaps 8ft tall and fairly wide. No basal glands and with the peculiar gap in the phyllodes as if its been purposelessly cut out or eaten by an insect.
Many thin anastomoses and roughly 4 prominent nerves as you can see on the photo.
Is it possible to plant this small branch for it to grow roots and grow into a tree?

Hi All,
I have snapped some pics of several Acacias today.
The first one appears to be A. floribunda except for the lack of flowers for which it is named. Almost all flowers were developed but they were very sparse on the tree. no basal gland, narrow phyllodes, creamy light lemon flowers. The whole tree was infested with galls so perhaps this is the cause of the lack of flowers or perhaps it is not floribunda. Interestingly the small branchlet with the flowers had different sized and shaped phyllodes than the rest of the tree.
Also interesting is that the galls all had hairs like on the branchlets and phyllodes.
The next photos are from the same tree and it represents 99% of what is on the tree. You can see how vastly different the phyllodes are from the previous photo with flowers.
The next ones i believe to be possibly A. mucronata spp. longifolia or floribunda but am not sure.
It has an abundance of rod flowers and the phyllodes are erect and running along the branch. Again no basal gland, rods, narrow long phyllodes.
This last one also required ID but again i am leaning towards A. mucronata or A. floribunda
Any help in whether i am correct or wrong on the above ID's will be greatly appreciated.

The tree that I posted a few pics from here mis-labeled as longifolia has flowered so here's a few pics in case anyone has any ideas as to what it may be.
The flowers are not as pale as these pics indicate.

i believe it helps to state your general area, so it is known what grows there

I came across this wattle this morning walking along a beach after all but giving up on finding an active species and couldn't ID it. I'v searched through the anbg (Australian Botanical National Gardens) site and haven't found an exact match. I think it could be an Acacia floribunda but I'm unsure. Any help would be greatly appreciated 
picture not showing on my end
