Vachelliais a genus offlowering plantsin thelegumefamily,Fabaceae,commonly known asthorn treesoracacias.It belongs to the subfamilyMimosoideae.Its species were considered members of genusAcaciauntil 2009.[2][3]Vachelliacan be distinguished from other acacias by its capitateinflorescencesand spinescentstipules.[4]Before discovery of theNew World,Europeans in the Mediterranean region were familiar with several species ofVachellia,which they knew as sources of medicine, and had names for them that they inherited from the Greeks and Romans[clarification needed].[5]
The wide-ranging genus occurs in a variety of open, tropical to subtropical habitats, and is locally dominant.[6]In parts of Africa,Vachelliaspecies are shaped progressively by grazing animals of increasing size and height, such asgazelle,gerenuk,andgiraffe.The genus in Africa has thus developed thorns in defence against such herbivory[clarification needed].[7]
Nomenclature
[edit]By 2005, taxonomists had decided thatAcacia sensu latoshould be split into at least five separate genera. TheICNdictated that under these circumstances, the name ofAcaciashould remain with the originaltype,which wasAcacia nilotica.[1]However, that year the General Committee of theIBCdecided thatAcaciashould be given a new type (Acacia verticillatum) so that the ~920 species of Australian acacias would not need to be renamedRacosperma.This decision was opposed by 54.9% or 247 representatives at its 2005 congress, while 45.1% or 203 votes were cast in favor. However, since a 60% vote was required to override the committee, the decision was carried, and anom. cons.propositumwas listed in Appendix III (p. 286).[8][9]The 2011 congress voted 373 to 172 to uphold the 2005 decision, which means that the nameAcaciaand a new type follow the majority of the species inAcacia sensu lato,rather than this genus.[10]However, some members of the botanical community remain unconvinced,[11]and the use ofAcaciain the scientific literature continues to exceed the use of the new generic names.
Description
[edit]The members ofVachelliaare trees or shrubs, sometimes climbing, and are always armed. Younger plants, especially, are armed with spines which are modifiedstipules,situated near the leaf bases. Some (cf.V. tortilis,Vachellia hebeclada ,V. luederitziiandV. reficiens) are also armed with paired, recurvedprickles(in addition to the spines).[12]The leaves are alternate and bipinnately arranged, and their pinnae are usually opposite. The racemose inflorescences usually grow from the leaf axils. The yellow or creamy white flowers are produced in spherical heads, or seldom in elongate spikes, which is the general rule in the related genusSenegalia.The flowers are typically bisexual with numerous stamens, but unisexual flowers have been noted inV. nilotica(cf.Sinha, 1971).[13]The calyx and corolla are usually 4 to 5-lobed. Glands are usually present on therachisand the upper side of thepetiole.The seed pod may be straight, curved or curled, and either dehiscent or indehiscent.[12]
