About

Acacia manipularis is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to north-western Australia. It is a spreading, sticky shrub with terete, glabrous, warty, resinous branchlets, thread-like, straight to very slightly curved phyllodes in bundles of two to six, spherical heads of golden yellow flowers, and narrowly lance-shaped, flat, woody pods.

Where it grows

This species of wattle grows with Melaleuca species and Eucalyptus brevifolia in tall shrubland and shrub, and sometimes on a shale plateau. It occurs near Jasper Gorge in the Ord Victoria Plain in Northern Territory, and there is a disjunct population on the Mount House and Tableland Stations in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.
