Androcalva adenothalia is a species of flowering plant in the family Malvaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It is a prostrate shrub with hairy stems, broadly egg-shaped leaves with rounded teeth on the edges, and clusters of 4 to 9 or more white flowers.

Where it grows

This species was only known from the type location near Canna in the Avon Wheatbelt of south-western Western Australia, where it grew on a disturbed roadside that has since been burnt and cleared by roadworks. The species has been propagated using tissue culture.
