183521321A76FFA7FF71FEAAC2E5F82E.taxon	materials_examined	Type: — SOUTH AFRICA. Limpopo Province: Soutpansberg, farm Tanga, 22 ° 49 ’ 36.7 ” S, 29 ° 55 ’ 10.8 ” E, 770 m, 27 March 1992, N. Hahn 351 (holotype PRU!; isotype ZPB!). Senegalia montis-salinarum is most similar to S. burkei in general morphology. Senegalia montis-salinarum is a multi-stemmed tree growing on mountain scree slopes whereas S. burkei is a single-stemmed savannah tree. Senegalia montis-salinarum has on average 7.3 – 10.0 leaflet pairs per pinna, pinna 6.0 – 7.6 × 1.7 – 2.2 mm in size opposed to those of S. burkei with 4.1 – 6.3 leaflet pairs per pinna, pinna 7.3 – 10.7 × 3.0 – 4.7 mm in size. The inflorescence spike length of S. montis-salinarum is on average 28.9 – 35.7 mm long opposed to that of S. burkei that is longer, 49.6 – 66.3 mm. In fruit Senegalia montis-salinarum has on average 3.7 – 8.3 seeds per pod whereas S. burkei has only 2.6 – 4.7.
