Pentalepis trichodesmoides is a species of flowering plant endemic to Australia, and found in the Northern Territory and Western Australia.[1]
It was first described by Ferdinand von Mueller in 1863.[2][3] The species epithet, trichodesmoides, refers to the likeness of this plant to Trichodesma zeylanicum at the beginning of flowering.[3]
