Ptilotus pyramidatus, the pyramid mulla mulla,[5] is a small white herb in the family Amaranthaceae.[1]

Ptilotus pyramidatus was first described in 1849 by Alfred Moquin-Tandon as Trichinium pyramidatum,[6][7] but was redescribed in 1868 by Ferdinand von Mueller when he allocated it to the genus, Ptilotus.[2][3]

Under Western Australian conservation legislation it has been declared "rare".[1]
