Trichocline spathulata, common name native gerbera, is a plant in the family Asteraceae, found in the south-west of Western Australia.
It was first described in 1836 by Allan Cunningham as Celmisia spathulata, but was transferred to the genus Trichocline in 1967 by James Hamlyn Willis.
The species epithet, spathulata, is a Latin adjective describing some part of the plant as being spoon-shaped.
