It was first formally described in 1863 by George Bentham who gave it the name Candollea uncinata in Flora Australiensis from specimens collected by James Drummond.[3][4] In 1882, Ferdinand von Mueller changed the name to Hibbertia uncinata in his Systematic Census of Australian Plants.[5] The specific epithet (uncinata) means "hooked", referring to the leaves.[6]
This hibbertia grows on slopes, hills and floodplains in the Avon Wheatbelt biogeographical region of south-western Western Australia.[2]
Hibbertia uncinata is classified as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife.[2]
