Phebalium is a genus of thirty species of shrubs or small trees in the family Rutaceae and is endemic to Australia.
There are about thirty species and they are found in all Australian states but not in the Northern Territory.
Plants in the genus Phebalium are shrubs or small trees that are often more or less covered with scales or shield-shaped or star-shaped hairs, at least when young.
The leaves are arranged alternately along the stems, and are simple, sometimes with toothed edges.
[2][3][4][5] The genus Phebalium was first formally described in 1805 by Étienne Pierre Ventenat in his book Jardin de la Malmaison.
