    Spinifex is any species of grass, perennial Australian grasses, growing in arid regions and having awl-shaped, pointed leaves. Unlike the plants of the related genus Triodia, Spinifex species are found only in wet habitats along coastlines. It is often planted along coastal regions, in snow drifts and to bind sand along the seashore.

    The term "Spinifex" also refers to porcupine grass, any of a group of spiny-leaved, tussock-forming grasses of genus Triodia native to inland Australia.
