Daviesia scabrella is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to inland areas of Western Australia. It is a dense, low-lying, spreading shrub with many tangled branches, scattered, sharply-pointed phyllodes, and yellow and red flowers. Description
Daviesia scabrella is a dense, low-lying, spreading shrub that typically grows up to  high and  wide with many tangled branches, its stems and leaves covered with minute hard points. Its phyllodes are scattered, tapering cylindrical,  long, about  wide and sharply-pointed. The flowers are arranged in one or two group of up to three in leaf axils on a peduncle  long, the rachis up to  long, each flower on a pedicel  long. The sepals are  long and joined at the base, the two upper lobes joined for most of their length, the lower three with lobes  long. The standard petal is broadly egg-shaped, about  long,  wide, and yellow with a red base and a yellow centre. The wings are about  long and yellow with a red base, the keel about  long and dull red. Flowering has been observed in October and the fruit is a flattened, triangular pod  long. Taxonomy
Daviesia scabrella was first formally described in 2017 by Michael Crisp in the journal Phytotaxa from specimens he collected near Condingup in 2012. The specific epithet (scabrella) means "covered with minute hard points", referring to the texture of the vegetative parts of the plant. Distribution and habitat
