Acacia parvifoliolata is a species of shrub of the genus Acacia endemic to a small area in and around the Belington Hut State Forest, near Taroom in Queensland.[2][3]
It is a species of spindly shrub which can grow up to 4 metres high. The leaves are bipinnate, with there usually being 3-6 pairs of pinnae, which are spaced from 15-25 mms between one another. Flowers are yellow and appear spherical in shape. Pods are narrowly oblong, straight-edged or slightly constricted between seeds and obviously rounded over them, and are from 6.5 to 12 cms long as well as 6 to 8 mms in width. Seeds are longitudinal to slightly oblique or ellipsoid with dimensions of 6 x 5 mms; they are turgid and black.
