Acacia rostellifera, commonly known as summer-scented wattle or skunk tree, is a coastal tree or small tree in the family Fabaceae. Endemic to Western Australia, it occurs along the west coast as far north as Kalbarri in the Southwest Australia savanna ecoregion, and along the south coast as far east as Israelite Bay.
The summer-scented wattle generally reproduces by suckers from underground stems. Because of this suckering, the species often forms thickets that exclude all other species. The tallest Acacia of its area, it can grow to 10 metres. Specimens above 3 metres are not often seen, however, as bushfires occur often in its area. Fire burns the plants right to the ground, but the underground stem resprouts vigorously.

Acacia rostellifera est une espèce de plantes de la famille des Fabacées. Endémique en Australie-Occidentale, on le trouve le long de la côte ouest jusqu'à Kalbarri au nord, et le long de la côte sud, jusqu'à Israelite Bay à l'est.
Il se reproduit généralement par des drageons souterrains. En raison de ce drageonnage, l'espèce forme souvent des taillis qui excluent toutes les autres espèces. C'est le plus haut acacia de sa région, il peut atteindre 10 mètres de haut mais les spécimens de plus de 3 mètres sont rares il y a souvent des feux de brousse dans ces régions. Le feu brûle les plantes jusqu'au sol, mais les souches reprennent vigoureusement.
