Androcalva microphylla is a unique species of flowering plant that belongs to the Malvaceae family and is found only in the south-west region of Western Australia. It is a low-growing shrub with egg-shaped leaves and clusters of white and dark red flowers. The plant is covered in yellowish star-shaped hairs and has irregular lobes on its leaves. It blooms from August to November and produces spherical capsules as fruit. This species was first described in 1863 and was later transferred to the Androcalva genus in 2011. It is mainly found in open shrubland in the Geraldton Sandplains and Yalgoo bioregions. Androcalva microphylla is considered a species of conservation concern, as it is only found in a few locations and is poorly understood.
