The name Mimosacineraria L. (Syst. Nat., ed. 10: 1311. 1759), based on M.cinerea L. (Sp. Pl.: 517 [non 520]. 1753; see Art. 53 Ex. 19), was transferred to Prosopis L. by Druce (in Bot. Exch. Club Brit. Isles Rep. 3: 422. 1914) as P.cineraria (L.) Druce. However, the correct name in Prosopis would have been a combination based on M.cinerea (l.c.) had not that name been successfully proposed for rejection (see App. V). in ICN Art. 53.5, Note 4.
