About

Acacia tysonii, commonly known as Tyson's wattle, is a shrub or tree of the genus Acacia and the subgenus Phyllodineae that is endemic to parts of western Australia.

Where it grows

It is native to an area in the Gascoyne, Mid West and Goldfields-Esperance regions of Western Australia where it has a scattered distribution growing in sandy-clay-loam soils often over or around limestone or calcrete. The shrub is found from between Gascoyne Junction and Peak Hill in the north to around Morawa and Mouroubra in the south with specimens also found around Lake Auld on the boundary of the Great Sandy Desert often as a part of low shrubland communities.
