Malvina is an unincorporated community located in Bolivar County, Mississippi, United States, located approximately 3 miles (4.8 km) northwest of Symonds and approximately 9 miles (14 km) east of Rosedale.

Originally named "Phalia", the town was established in 1887 by Jett Dent, who became the first postmaster.

When the Louisville, New Orleans and Texas Railway built a line in the late 1880s between Rosedale and Boyle, a depot, platforms, water tank and wood yard were constructed at Phalia.

[2] A dirt road ran from Rosedale to Merigold, and passed through Malvina.

[3] In the 1920s, a wooden three-way bridge was built in Malvina over the confluence of the Lane Bayou and Bogue Phalia.
