Name Status. Accepted Name
Classification. This species contains 2 infraspecific taxa ( var. indochinensis, var. megaladena)
Notes. (1) As noted by Nielsen (1980: 350), in previous years Acacia (Senegalia) megaladena had been combined with A. (Senegalia) pennata by many authors. Nielsen followed Brenan & Exell (1957) in regarding these two entities as distinct species, an approach adopted under Senegalia by Maslin et al. (2013), Maslin (2015) and Deshpande et al. (2019). Senegalia megaladena is now considered as comprising two varieties, var. megaladena and var. indochinensis. A detailed treatment of this species in China is presented in Maslin et al. (2019: 410-415). (2) Originally published as 'megalodena'.

SYNONYMY

Notes. Nielsen (1980: 350) provisionally treated Acacia brunnescens Parkinson as conspecific with A. magaladena; however, having now seen the type of this name, the species we can here confirm the species as conspecific with Senegalia megaladena (B.R. Maslin).
