Acacia legnota is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to the north of Queensland, Australia. It is a shrub to tree with smooth grey bark, narrowly elliptic to lance-shaped, strongly sickle-shaped, glabrous phyllodes, spherical heads of golden yellow flowers and linear, leathery pods rounded over the seeds.
This species of wattle is common between Cape Flattery and Cookton in coastal areas with outlying populations in the Iron Range area and at Cowley Beach, where it grows in coastal sand dunes and in shrubby heathland, often long streams or near lagoons.
