  • Etymology: "The specific name is derived from the Latin word inaequilatera (with unequal sides) in reference to the extremely asymmetric phyllodes. In the past there has been considerable confusion between A. pyrifolia and A. inaequilatera concerning the application of their common and aboriginal names. This applies particularly to the common names Ranji, Kanji and Camel Bush which have been variously applied to both species. As a consequence it is likely that the past application of at least some of the aboriginal names which were based on these common names have also been incorrect. We have now standardized the use of Ranji (for A. pyrifolia var. pyrifolia) and Kanji (for A. inaequilatera). Furthermore, the aboriginal names that are here applied to these taxa are based on our judgment and with reference to the citation of the scientific name (we were not guided by the common names used in the literature)."
