Acacia demissa is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to inland Western Australia. It is a shrub or tree with pendulous, slender, glabrous branchlets, pendulous linear to narrowly elliptic phyllodes, oblong to cylindrical heads of golden yellow flowers and oblong to narrowly oblong, thick and woody pods.
