Abstract

Subdivision of the former broadly circumscribed genus Acacia Miller (1754) (see Miller & Seigler, 2012 for overview) and the conservation of Acacia with a new type (McNeill & Turland, 2011) has led to many nomenclatural changes globally. As summarized by Maslin (2015) there are currently five genera recognized for taxa previously included in Acacia sens. lat. Of these, the pan-tropical genera Senegalia Rafinesque (1838: 119) and Vachellia Wight & Arnott (1834: 272) encompass the entire indigenous ‘Acacia’ flora of India, with several species of Acacia sens. str. introduced to the subcontinent.
