Taxonomy and naming

Goodenia gibbosa was first formally described in 1980 by Roger Charles Carolin in the journal Telopea from material he collected near the southern end of the Dean Range in the Northern Territory in 1967. The specific epithet (gibbosa) means "swollen" or "pouched", referring to the ovary.

Distribution and habitat

This goodenia grows in sandy soil on dunes and is widely distributed in the drier areas of the Northern Territory, Western Australia and South Australia.
