Micromyrtus elobata is a species of flowering plant in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae and is endemic to the south of Western Australia. It is usually an erect shrub with small, narrowly to broadly egg-shaped leaves with the narrower end towards the base, and white flowers 3–5 mm (0.12–0.20 in) in diameter.
Subspecies elobata occurs between Salmon Gums, the Fitzgerald River National Park and Israelite Bay in the Esperance Plains and Mallee bioregions, often in deep sand, commonly on low lying plains or on dunes. Subspecies scopula is found between Kumarl, south-west of Balladonia and Kau Rock in the Mallee bioregion.
