Austrostipa variabilis is a species of grass in the family Poaceae that is native to southern Australia and South Africa. It is a perennial tufted bunchgrass, from 15–80 centimetres (5.9–31.5 in) in height, with green or purple flowers. It grows in a range of habitats, including dunes and granite outcrops, and tolerates a range of soils. It was first collected early in the 19th century by James Drummond, from the vicinity of the Swan River, and was not described until 1921. In 1996, the species was transferred into the newly erected genus Austrostipa.
