Dodonaea stenozyga, commonly known as desert hop-bush,[2] is a species of flowering plant in the family Sapindaceae and grows in southern parts of Australia.

Dodonaea stenozyga is an upright, rounded shrub to 1.5 m (4 ft 11 in) high with paripinnate leaves 1–3.8 cm (0.39–1.50 in) long, leaflets linear, rounded at the apex, sometimes recurved, entire, 2-6 leaflets, 8–13.5 mm (0.31–0.53 in) long and on a petiole 9.5–20 mm (0.37–0.79 in) long.

[3][4][5] Dodonaea stenozyga was first formally described in 1859 by Ferdinand von Mueller and the description was published in Brunonia.

[6][7] The specific epithet (stenozyga) means "joined" in reference to the pinnate leaves.

[8] Desert hop-bush grows in semi-arid locations in mallee scrub or open woodland in Victoria, South Australia, New South Wales and Western Australia.
