Persoonia papillosa is a species of flowering plant in the family Proteaceae and is endemic to a restricted area in the west of Western Australia.

It is a small, erect shrub with hairy young branchlets, linear leaves with six prominent parallel veins, and hairy flowers borne in groups of up to twenty on a rachis up to 60 mm (2.4 in) long.

[2][3][4][5] Persoonia papillosa was first formally described in 1994 by Peter Weston in the journal Telopea from specimens collected near Yuna in 1962.

[4][6] This geebung grows in sand and has only been collected from near the Murchison River and Yuna in the Geraldton Sandplains biogeographic region of Western Australia.

[3][5] Persoonia papillosa is classified as "Priority Two" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife[5] meaning that it is poorly known and from only one or a few locations.
