Pimelea tinctoria is a species of flowering plant in the family Thymelaeaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It is an erect, spindly shrub with elliptic leaves arranged in opposite pairs, and compact heads of many yellow or yellowish-green flowers usually surrounded by 4 to 7 pairs of egg-shaped to narrowly elliptic yellow and green involucral bracts.
This pimelea grows in sandy soil in shrubland and clearings in near-coastal areas mainly from near Denmark to near Cape Riche, and in the Stirling Range, in the Esperance Plains, Jarrah Forest and Warren bioregions of south-western Western Australia.
