Styphelia exolasia, commonly known as Woronora beard-heath,[1] is a species of flowering plant in the heath family Ericaceae and is endemic to a small area of New South Wales.

Styphelia exolasia is an erect shrub that typically grows to a height of 1 m (3 ft 3 in) and has softly-hairy branchlets.

The petal tube is covered with tiny hairs on the outside, the lobes 4.0–5.4 mm (0.16–0.21 in) long and shaggy-hairy on the inside.

[1][3][4] Woronora beard-heath was first formally described in 1867 by Ferdinand von Mueller in his Fragmenta Phytographiae Australiae from specimens collected by Ludwig Leichhardt near the village of Camden.

The threats to the species include its small population size, habitat loss, weed invasion and inappropriate fire regimes.
