I don't think it's ironwood or Arizona Walnut. Doesn't look quite right for either of those.

I gave Mequite a good look, and, although it looks somewhat similar, I don't think that's it either.

I am surely not an expert on them so I must admit I have no clue as to the proper name of the specific type.
Does this one grow on the desert floor or on high ground and in zones of more rainfall?

That one only grows in Arizona where the cow pies hit along the roads. It is our native one....
