Description
It grows as a shrub or tree, up to ten metres high. It has blue-grey phyllodes and yellow flowers.Taxonomy
There is some confusion as to the origin of the type specimen for this variety. No type was specified when the variety was published, and the specimens in the type folder at the Adelaide Herbarium are said to have been obtained by L. Abrahams at Cobar, New South Wales. However, this variety does not occur in New South Wales, and nothing is known of L. Abrahams. It was published as ''A. aneura'' var. ''latifolia'' by John McConnell Black in 1923. Barbara Randell transferred it from ''Acacia aneura, A. aneura'' to ''Acacia ayersiana, A. ayersiana'' in 1992.Distribution
It occurs in arid and semi-arid parts of Australia, including parts of Western Australia, South Australia, and the Northern Territory. It is usually found in red sandy or loamy soils, often along creek lines.See also
