Pomaderris ligustrina, commonly known as privet pomaderris,[2] is a species of flowering plant in the family Rhamnaceae and is endemic to south-eastern continental Australia.

It is a shrub with hairy stems, lance-shaped to narrowly elliptic leaves, and loose clusters of cream-coloured or yellow flowers.

Pomaderris ligustrina is a shrub that typically grows to a height of 1.0–4.5 m (3 ft 3 in – 14 ft 9 in), its branchlets covered with both simple and rust-coloured, star-shaped hairs when young.

[2][3][4] Pomaderris ligustrina was first formally described in 1825 by Augustin Pyramus de Candolle in Prodromus Systematis Naturalis Regni Vegetabilis from an unpublished description by Franz Sieber.

[7] In 1997, Neville Grant Walsh and Fiona Coates described subspecies latifolia in the journal Muelleria and the name, and that of the autonym are accepted by the Australian Plant Census: Privet pomaderris grows in forest on the ranges and escarpments from south-east Queensland and New South Wales to as far west as Bairnsdale in Victoria.
