It was reclassified as "Racosperma viscifolium" in 2003 by Leslie Pedley then returned to genus "Acacia" in 2006.

It is native to an area in the Wheatbelt and Great Southern regions of Western Australia where it is often found in low-lying areas usually around ricers, creek and swamps growing in sandy, clay or loamy soils.
