Dodonaea camfieldii is a species of plant in the family Sapindaceae and is endemic to New South Wales. It is a small plant with single or paired flowers and mostly simple leaves.
Dodonaea camfieldii is a small, spreading shrub occasionally prostrate, 0.2–1 m (7.9 in – 3 ft 3.4 in) high. The leaves are mostly simple but may be oblong or lobed, smooth or sparsely hairy 1–3.5 cm (0.39–1.38 in) long, 2–8 mm (0.079–0.315 in) wide, decurrent at the base, sessile and a pointed at the apex. The flowers are borne singly or in pairs on a pedicel 2–4 mm (0.079–0.157 in) long, usually four oval to oblong-shaped sepals 2–3 mm (0.079–0.118 in) long. Flowering occurs from September to November and the fruit is a four winged capsule, 10–15.5 mm (0.39–0.61 in) long, 9–12 mm (0.35–0.47 in) wide, smooth or with sparse hairs, leathery, becoming red or purplish with age.

[4] [5] The specific epithet (camfieldii) was named in honour of Mr. Camfield a botanical collector. [4]
