Acacia semicircinalis commonly known as Wongan wattle or Wongan sprawling wattle, is a shrub of the genus Acacia and the subgenus Phyllodineae that is endemic to a small area in western Australia. The species was once listed as a threatened species according to the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 but was removed in 2006.
It is native to a small area in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia where it is commonly situated on hillslopes growing in gravelly lateritic soils. It has a very limited range in the Wongan Hills area where it is thought to be an opportunist in disturbed areas that is long living. It is usually found as a part of Mallee and acacia shrubland communities, and often found with Allocasuarina campestris, Petrophile shuttleworthiana, Eucalyptus longicornis, Acacia acanthoclada, Acacia lasiocarpa and Acacia pulchella. In 2006 there was an estimated 10,400 mature individual plants situated within fifteen separate populations found over an area of approximately 60 km2 (23 sq mi).
