Hibbertia lasiopus is a species of flowering plant in the family Dilleniaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It is prostrate, ascending sometimes erect shrub that typically grows to a height of 10–50 cm (3.9–19.7 in).[2] It was first formally described in 1863 by George Bentham in Flora Australiensis from specimens collected from the Swan River Colony by James Drummond.[3][4] The specific epithet (lasiopus) means "shaggy foot", referring to the flowers' hairy peduncles.[5]
Hibbertia lasiopus grows in soils derived from laterite in the Avon Wheatbelt, Jarrah Forest and Swan Coastal Plain biogeographic regions of south-western Western Australia. It is classified as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife.[2]
