About the Book

This volume comprises one complete family the Caesalpinaceae, together with all native and naturalized Mimosaceae apart from Acacia. It provides descriptions of 38 genera, 153 species and 16 "form taxa" in these families, and includes contributions from seven authors. Mimosaceae is represented in Australia by 17 genera, of which 16 (containing 43 species) are dealt with in this volume. Most of the species documented here occur as trees, shrub or lianes in subtropical Australia. Twenty-two genera of Caesalpinaceae (of which three are endemic and six naturalized) and 126 species are present in Australia and are covered in this book. A number of the genera covered in this volume are of horticultural significance and some are pest species. "Albizia" is commonly found in gardens and is a pest species in some areas. Red sandalwood ("Adenanthera pavonia"), raintree ("Samanea saman"), cape wattle ("Paraserianthes Iophantha) and carob ("Ceratonia siliqua") are widely cultivated in tropics. The tamarind tree ("Tamarindus indica") is popular with horticulturalists in West Australia and Queensland.
