Acacia spania, also known as western rosewood, is a tree belonging to the genus Acacia and the subgenus Juliflorae that is endemic to north eastern Australia.
It is found in a small area of inland east-central Queensland mostly from a couple of localities around Emerald where it is situated in red soils often present as dense stands as a part of woodland communities where it is often associated with species of Eucalyptus and other species of Acacia. The tree is usually found among rocky sandstone ridges and on hills in sandy to loamy soils at altitudes of 400 to 600 m (1,300 to 2,000 ft) over an area of around approximately 205,000 km2 (79,000 sq mi) from north of Aramac to about Roma in the south.
