Phlebocarya pilosissima is a plant in the Haemodoraceae family, native to Western Australia. It has flattened to terete leaves that are 14-35 cm by 0.6-2 mm and can be smooth to densely covered with sharp rigid bristly hairs. The flower heads vary from being about half as long to longer than the leaves, with a hairy scape and bracts with branched hairs along the margin. The style is trifid and there are three stigmas. It was first described as Phlebocarya ciliata var pilosissima by Ferdinand von Mueller in 1873, but later in 1873 George Bentham erected it to the species Phlebocarya pilosissima. The species epithet, pilosissima, comes from the Latin, pilus ("hair") which gives the adjective, pilosus, and its superlative, pilosissima, thus describing the plant as being the "hairiest".
