Acacia leiophylla, commonly known as coast golden wattle, is a tree of the family Mimosaceae native to South Australia and Western Australia.[1] It was described by botanist George Bentham in the London Journal of Botany in 1842.[2] Similar in appearance to A. pycnantha, it can be distinguished by its lighter phyllodes.[3]
