Eutaxia epacridoides is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to south western parts of Western Australia.[1][2]

The erect shrub has a spreading or slender habit and can reach a height of 0.2 to 1 m (7.9 in to 3 ft 3.4 in). It produces yellow to red or brown coloured flowers usually in Spring (season) between September and October.[2]
