Mirbelia ovata is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It is a spreading or prostrate shrub that typically grows to a height of 15–60 cm (5.9–23.6 in) and many branches, covered with woolly or shaggy hairs. Its leaves are egg-shaped, less than 12 mm (0.47 in) long and sharply-pointed. The flowers are arranged in pairs or threes at the base of branches and are yellow or orange and purple and appear from August to October.[2][3] It was first formally described in 1844 by Carl Meissner in Lehmann's Plantae Preissianae.[4][5] The specific epithet (ovata) means "wider below the middle".[6]
This mirbelia grows on undulating plains in the Avon Wheatbelt, Esperance Plains, Jarrah Forest, Mallee and Warren bioregions of south-western Western Australia, and is listed as "not threatened" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions.[2]
