See list Daviesia, commonly known as bitter peas,[2] is a genus of about 130 species of flowering plants in the family Fabaceae, and is endemic to Australia.

Plants in the genus Daviesia are shrubs or small trees with leaves modified as phyllodes or reduced to scales.

The flowers are arranged singly or in groups, usually in leaf axils, the sepals joined at the base with five teeth, the petals usually yellowish with reddish markings and the fruit a pod.

The sepals are joined at the base to form a bell-shaped tube with five teeth, the two upper teeth usually wider and the petals are usually yellowish with reddish markings, the standard petal more or less round with a notch at the top and often shorter than the wings and keel.

[8] The genus Daviesia was first formally described in 1798 by James Edward Smith in Transactions of the Linnean Society of London.
