Hibbertia ovata is a species of flowering plant in the family Dilleniaceae and is endemic to Western Australia. It is an ascending or erect, spreading shrub that typically grows to a height of 10–60 cm (3.9–23.6 in). It flowers from July to November and has yellow flowers.[2] It was first formally described in 1845 by Ernst Gottlieb von Steudel in Lehmann's Plantae Preissianae.[3][4] The specific epithet (ovata) means "wider below the middle", referring to the leaves.[5]
This species is found on the Darling Scarp in the Jarrah Forest and Swan Coastal Plain biogeographic regions of south-western Western Australia.[2]
