Thryptomene cuspidata is a species of flowering plant in the family Myrtaceae and is endemic to Western Australia. It is a dense erect shrub that typically grows to a height of 0.6–2.2 m (2 ft 0 in – 7 ft 3 in) and blooms between July and November producing white or pink flowers.
The species was first formally described in 1852 by Nikolai Turczaninow and given the name Paryphantha cuspidata in the Bulletin de la classe physico-mathematique de l'Academie Imperiale des sciences de Saint-Petersburg. In 1985, John Green changed the name to Thryptomene cuspidata.
