  • APC Comment: Intermediates between A. demissa and A. quadrimarginea are recorded (Cowan & Maslin, 2001). Mueller used an unconventional spelling for his species epithet, presumably meaning 'four margined', usually translated as quadrimarginata. However, if his original spelling is accepted then the root of the epithet is presumably quadrimargine-, and the combination in Racosperma should be R. quadrimargineum (q.v. Acacia resinimarginea / R. resinimargineum).
