Bossiaea bossiaeoides

Bossiaea bossiaeoides is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to northern Australia.

Flowering occurs from April to August and the fruit is an oblong pod 35–55 mm (1.4–2.2 in) long.

[2][3][4] This species was first formally described in 1842 by George Bentham from an unpublished description by Allan Cunningham who gave it the name Acacia bossiaeoides in the London Journal of Botany.

[3][5][6] In 1971, Arthur Bertram Court changed the name to Bossiaea bossiaeoides in the journal Muelleria.

[3][7] The specific epithet (bossiaeoides) means "bossiaea-like", the species having originally been placed in the genus Acacia.
