Desmanthus (name refers to flowers being in bundles). Syn. Acuan. Leguminosae. About 10 herbs or shrubs in subtropical N. Amer., and 1 in the tropics of the Old World, a few of the American species reaching well north in the U. S.; probably not regularly cult., but now and then transferred to the garden for the effect of their bipinnate lvs. and small greenish white fls., in axillary peduncled heads or spikes. The genus is one of the Mimosa tribe, and the fls. are not papilionaceous: petals 5, distinct or very nearly so; calyx bell-shaped j 5-toothed; stamens 5 or 10, distinct, usually exserted: pod flat, narrow, straight or curved, several-seeded. D. illinoensis, MacM. (Mimosa illinoensis, Michx. Acuan illinoensis, Kuntze), occurs in prairies and river borders from Ind. west and south: 1-5 ft., nearly glabrous, perennial erect herb: Ifts. 2O-30 pairs, obtusish. D. leptolobus, Torr. & Gray, occurs on prairies from Kans. to Texas: lfts. mostly fewer and acute, and peduncles much shorter (1 in. or less long).<br />
