Triumfetta clementii is a shrub species that occurs in the north-west of Western Australia. It has an erect, speading habit, growing to between 0.15 and 0.6 metres high. Yellow flowers appear between May and October in the species native range.[1]
The taxon was first formally described by Czech botanist Karel Domin in 1930 in Bibliotheca Botanica, based on a collection by Emile Clement between the Ashburton and De Grey Rivers. Domin gave it the name Triumfetta bartramia var. clementii. It was promoted to species status in 1997.[2]
