Abstract

This paper presents the description and botanical classification of Acacia ibirocayensis Marchiori, a new species from the sub-genus Acacia Vassal.

The plant is a small shrub with yellow flowers in solitary heads by node, and twice pinnate compound leaves provide with a pair of long stipular spines.

The described species was found on stony ravines of the lbirocay river, in the State of Rio Grande do Sul - Brazil, the only known natural place of occurrence of the species until the present time.
