Pimelea ligustrina is a species of flowering plant in the family Thymelaeaceae, and is endemic to south-eastern Australia.
It is a shrub with lance-shaped or narrowly elliptic leaves arranged in opposite pairs, and clusters of creamy-white, white or pinkish flowers usually surrounded by 4 or 8, greenish to reddish brown involucral bracts.
[2][3][4] Pimelea ligustrina was first formally described in 1805 by French naturalist Jacques Labillardière in his Novae Hollandiae Plantarum Specimen.
[5][6] In 1983, S. Threlfall described three subspecies of P. ligustrina in the journal Brunonia and the names are accepted by the Australian Plant Census: This pimelea occurs in the A.C.T.
[8][9][10] Subspecies hypericina grows on the margins of wet forest and rainforest, mainly between the Gibraltar Range and Mount Cambewarra in New South Wales.
