Mahonia microphylla is a shrub in the Berberidaceae first described as a species in 1999.[2] It is endemic to Guangxi Province in China.
The species is listed as vulnerable,[1] but its taxonomic status is uncertain with Plants of the World Online and World Flora Online listing it as "unplaced" or "unchecked and awaiting taxonomic scrutiny" respectively.[3][4]
Mahonia microphylla should not be confused with Berberis microphylla G.Forst., native to South America.[5]
