Pultenaea skinneri, commonly known as Skinner's pea,[2] is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.

[2] Pultenaea skinneri was first formally described by botanist Ferdinand von Mueller in 1874 in Fragmenta Phytographiae Australiae, from specimens collected by Mary Ann McHard near the Blackwood River in south-western Western Australia.

[3][4][5] The specific epithet, (skinneri), honours George Skinner, an employee of the Victorian Government Printer, where the Fragmenta was published.

[6] Skinner's pea grows in winter-wet depressions in the Jarrah Forest, Swan Coastal Plain and Warren biogeographic regions in the south-west of Western Australia.

[2] This pea is classified as "Priority Four" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions,[2] meaning that is rare or near threatened.
