Synaphea brachyceras is a shrub endemic to Western Australia.[1]
The small, round and prostrate shrub typically grows to a height of 0.3 metres (1.0 ft). It blooms between August and October producing yellow flowers.
It is found on flats and gentle slopes amongst scrubby bushland in a small area in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia between Wagin and Williams where it grows in sandy-gravelly soils over laterite.[1]
