b. var. microcephala (Kurz) Maslin, Seigler & Ebinger , comb. nov.

Acacia leucophloea var. microcephala Kurz, J.Asiat.Soc.Bengal,Pt. 2, Nat. Hist. 45 (1877) 297. — Type: None cited in protologue.

Distribution — Myanmar ( Burma).

Note — This variety is recognized by Kumar & Sane (2003, who note that it is not maintained in current literature) and was subsequently listed in Roskov et al. (2005). It was not included in any of Nielsen’s publications of Southeast Asian acacias, but this is perhaps not surprising because Myanmar was beyond the geographic scope of Nielsen’s work.
