Shining pomaderris was first formally described in 1863 by George Bentham who gave it the name Pomaderris phillyreoidesin var. nitidula in Flora Australiensis.<ref name="APNI1">{{cite web |title=Pomaderris phillyreoidesin var. nitidula |url=https://biodiversity.org.au/nsl/services/rest/instance/apni/112624 |publisher=Australian Plant Name Index |accessdate=16 March 2022}}</ref> In 1951, Norman Arthur Wakefield raised the variety to species status as Pomaderris nitidula. The specific epithet (nitidula) is the diminutive form of the Latin word nitidus, meaning "shining" or "bright", hence "somewhat shining". Distribution and habitatPomaderris nitidula'' grows in forest, woodland or scrub in rocky places, usually at higher altitudes and occurs in far south-eastern Queensland and as far south as Mount Seaview in New South Wales.
