Melaleuca brophyi is a plant in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.

Its leaves are crowded, spirally arranged, fleshy, warty, almost circular in cross-section and have prominent oil glands.

Small, yellow, almost spherical groups of flowers about 14 mm (0.6 in) in diameter appear on the ends of the branches between June and November.

The fruit are woody capsules in small, spherical clusters with a diameter of about 10 mm (0.4 in) and resemble soccer balls.

[3]Melaleuca brophyi was first described in 1999 by Lyndley Craven from a specimen found "about 1.8 km (1,800 m) south of Lake Biddy on the road to Newdegate".
