Acacia ptychoclada is a shrub of the genus Acacia and the subgenus Plurinerves that is endemic to a small area of south eastern Australia.
The shrub typically grows to a height of 0.6 to 2 m (2 ft 0 in to 6 ft 7 in) and has a slender and erect habit with angular, strongly ribbed and hairy branchlets.

It blooms between January and April producing yellow flowers. [1]
